Professional gossip blogger Perez Hilton has been particularly vocal about his displeasure with T-Mobile by loudly complaining about the cellular provider's failure to effectively communicate with its customer base. Of course, this extended outage would be embarrassing enough if it ended there, but on Saturday things took a turn for the worse. T-Mobile announced that a Microsoft server failure had caused some customers' data to be lost forever. T-Mobile didn't specify how many customers were affected by the failure, but it didn't leave much room for hope, either. The company stated that, if the data in question wasn't currently on your Sidekick, it was "almost certainly" lost.
