For those SideKick users who have a data loss since last week, Microsoft has released an updated statement on the recovery progress. The company is finally working on restoring personal contacts this week, follow by a restoration for the rest of the content (photos, notes… etc) if everything goes well. Check out T-Mobile forum here for the latest update.

The Danger / Microsoft team is continuing to work around the clock on the data restoration process.  We apologize that this is taking so long, but we want to make sure we are doing everything possible to maintain the integrity of your data.

We continue to make steady progress, and we hope to be able to begin restoring personal contacts for affected users this week, with the remainder of the content (photographs, notes, to-do-lists, marketplace data, and high scores) shortly thereafter. 

This data restoration effort is only necessary for customers who lost data from their Sidekick devices.  We appreciate your ongoing patience.
