Made the upgrade! But how would I transfer settings from my Desire?

I've just got a Nexus S after having a Desire for 6 months but how would I transfer over my app settings? I know that once I log in with my Gmail account, this'll transfer over a lot but there are other things like system preferences, app preferences, game saves etc that probably won't.

I haven't rooted my phone - I've customised it extensively (as much as possible without rooting) and don't want to root and lose that now as that defeats the purpose of this migration. So I can't use Titanium Backup or most of the other backup options.

Could I just copy everything from my SD card, transfer that to a computer, and then transfer that to the internal memory of the Nexus?

Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Titanium Backup and MyBackup Pro both backup the majority of your phone's stuff even without root. I've only ever used the root version of Titanium Backup though.
