Again, the topic was *data loss*. The accelerometer has nothing to do with data loss.

Data is always availble it's just 1 or 0 and if the wrong bit is set then that is LOST data. YOU DON'T LOOSE DATA. IT CAN NOT BE LOST.

Hahahaha!! Yeah, not sure if drunk or just this stupid.

It is very clear that this is in reference to storage method, where mechanical hard drives in computer have moving parts and flash memories in cell phones do not.

well at least that's true, but I have had the accelerometer latch up in my ipad.

No one asked about your iPad.
