Oracle Apps is in my experience just a big can of worms and the most buggy product Oracle ever has sold, especially if you needed to convert to the Euro.
So I would upgrade first Oracle Apps to make sure all issues I run into are caused by the application software, provided your installation is stable now. If you first crossgrade from SUN to HP, Apps seem to run, and afterwards you upgrade Apps, you might run into vendors accusing each other of causing the problem.
