Can Wrong Polarity To H-Bridge Damage Ez-B ?

I accidentally plugged the wrong polarity into Bobs H-bridge. The bridge died instantly but I'm hoping there's no damage to the EZ-B. Do any folks know if I'm in the clear or could the board be damaged in some way.

My ez-b is damaged... only the port D1 is damaged... I think is because I didnt use correctly the Hbridge!:( but all the ports are OK:)

I'm so lucky - absolutely no damage. I've changed all the positives to bullets and the negatives to flat connections as a fail safe way to avoid this happening again. The Hex bridge at $12 Ausie I can live with but I don't want to be forking out over $100 for another EZ board,
