When you POST new data to create an object, does your rest route respond with an ID? Your model will be looking for a JSON response from the successful create call. All you really need is ID, but any can include any other info you would like to be set on the model.

All you would really need to respond with is a 201 Created and { "id": "NzIdHda" }

If Backbone models do not have an ID, they will always POST and try and create new. Once they get an ID (either on instantiation or as the result of a .save(), they will no longer consider themselves "new".
