WIKI ANALYSIS(I was at Danger for four years working on the brseowr on the first four generations of Sidekick)There was a lot of pressure from engineering to make it possible to get data out. There was a whole sync API developed but it was never complete and never deployed in production. At some point after I left it became rewritten and disappeared. There was some sync support built on Intellisync for windows but I'm not sure that it was kept up to date for recent windows releases since the guy that developed that left before me even (IIRC).Generally it's an embarrassing state of affairs, only made more embarrassing by this monumental data loss fuckup. The more detailed rumor I hear the more depressing it is. Cloud computing's first great consumer success and first great failure?
