There may be some good news for Sidekick owners: users' data which was thought lost after a server failure at Microsoft subsidiary Danger - the company that makes the devices - may yet be retrieved.

Users of T-Mobile's Sidekick had been told the lost data - which included contacts, calendars and other information - may be gone for good after the server outage last week, but T-Mobile said last night "prospects of recovering some lost content may now be possible".
