While most people don't really comprehend the potential danger data stored onto their various mobile devices can be in, should the respective product fall into the wrong hands, the truth of the matter is that there are plenty of devices available on the market nowadays that will enable even people with little experience in the field of “hacking” to extract info from a smartphone, one such item being the iRecovery solution we'll talk about as follows.

The iRecovery Stick, presented by SpyGadgets, enables users to recover text messages, phone call history, internet history, contacts, pictures and graphics, calendar entries, map history, and much more, all the content being stored within an Apple iPhone 4's memory.

As mentioned before, using the iRecovery is a fairly simple process, which prompts users to firs plug the stick into a computer, and the connect the iPhone to the computer.

After this part of the process is done, they'll have to run the iPhone Spy Data Recovery Stick program, and it will begin scanning the iPhone for data, the whole scanning phase taking approximately 20 minutes per GB, so depending on how much data is the phone, the process will take a little bit of time.

Once the data recovery process is complete, users will be presented with all of the data in an easy-to-read table format that allows one to easily find whatever information they are looking for.

According to the vendor, the software should run without a hitch on iOS versions up to 4.x, while the OS compatibility includes the Win98/XP/2000/Vista/7 operating system (strangely or not quite so, this thing is not compatible with Macintosh OS).

As we pretty much expected, pricing for such a device is pretty high, the iRecovery Stick having a MSRP of around 260 US dollars, which is not exactly a very small sum, but we'll probably have to say that it's worth it, given the level of functionality it enables.
