In the last few days we have been seeing media reports about 
"permanently" deleted emails. On Friday Information Week ran a story that 
said deleted emails were particularly difficult to recover from cell 
phones and Blackberries.

But I think I remember a raft of stories from last summer about emails 
deleted from cell phones and Blackberries being easy to recover. We were 
being cautioned about selling our old cell phones on eBay because someone 
with just a little knowledge could retrieve all our deleted emails. They 
even said that the "delete everything" function didn't really delete 
anything, it just hid it.

So which is it? Anybody know?
