Some interesting points for consumption...

If you choose to purchase vBulletin you also get full access to an application they call ImpEx (Import / Export) which converts forums to vB from a range of other applications - and the good news is that phpBB is one of them.
tMP (pet name for my site) was phpBB once, and I used the tool to convert the whole database to vB and the process took a few hours. When members went to sleep here in the UK they saw phpBB, when they woke up, they saw vB!! I have been using vB for 3 years now and I'd never go back.
My members were very accepting of their new application, and it took no time at all to be totally forgotten of phpBB
