I've used this trick and it works like a charm. You usually get duplicate contacts/calendar when you restore from a backup.

-before restoring from the backup, backup BLANK PIM (PIM only).
-restore from full back-up.
-restire Blank PIM (this simply erases all your contacts/calendar, but keeps all your software programs)
-sync to your desktop, and the single copy of your contacts/calendar will be back.

I find this the quickest, easiest and safest way. I now always keep a Blank PIM backup on my SD cars.
