Where did you buy it from? Most mobile retail shops offer a service that allows transfer of data to your new handset where possible, and they do seem to know all the "secret" codes to do this. I dropped my handset [again] for it's final time and the shop I went to recovered all the internal data and transferred it to my replacement handset and I was convinced at the same time to purchase a 3 year insurance policy for �20 covering loss and damage for the next time I have a gravity induced incident. (in answer to where that can rescue your data, it was the Car Phone Warehouse, but I don't endorse nore recommend them, they were the first to be prepaired to help ME and there were lots that did not, situations are different for all these guys)
