They're still looking for a way to recover it, but they're not giving users a lot of hope -- meanwhile, servers are still on the fritz and customers are being advised not to let their devices power down because anything that's still on there will be lost the next time the device is turned on. Another communique is promised from T-Mobile on Monday to give everyone a status update on the recovery efforts, but at this point, it's not looking good at all.T-Mobile: we probably lost all your Sidekick data originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Sat, 10 Oct 2009 15:45:00 EST.
