Most are familiar with the server failure that resulted all sidekick cellular device users to lose all of their memory. Microsoft now claims to have redeemed their mistake by recovering "most" of the data lost. Losing data on a cellular device is definatley a problem and just proves that there are some issues with using the "cloud" to save all your information. Since Microsoft claimed all of the data was impossible to retrive, you might be wondering how the majority of users data was recovered, Microsost had this to say, “We have determined that the outage was caused by a system failure that created data loss in the core database and the back-up. We rebuilt the system component by component, recovering data along the way. This careful process has taken a significant amount of time, but was necessary to preserve the integrity of the data.” The first data to be restored to the sidekicks will be the address book with the rest eventually to follow.
