Microsoft Releases Sidekick Data Recovery Tool

Microsoft has released a recovery tool for Sidekick users who are still without their data following last week's outage.

Microsoft today issued another statement regarding the company's progress in recovering everyone's data. A post from the Redmond-based company yesterday confirmed that the company would have contacts restored by the end of the week, with all remaining content following shortly afterward. Making good on the first half of that promise, Microsoft today posted a recovery tool that allows users to restore their contacts via the My T-Mobile website.

Of course, it's not just folks' contacts that were lost but, rest assured, Microsoft and Danger are working hard to complete the next phase of the great data restoration.

"We continue to work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to restore your data. We’re making solid progress on the next phase in this restoration process, including your photographs, notes, to-do lists, marketplace data and high scores."

Nice to see things are finally motoring along at a steady pace, isn't it?
