So my piece of crap iphone has finally packed it and died - I can no longer turn it on. Its done this a bit and everytime its come back to life its been 1 January 1970 apparently. But now its really gone. My dilemma - all my photos are on it. DD2s entire life is on it. Are they gone forever or are they possible to save?

Look into a program called iRip (about $10 I think). I lost the hard drive on my computer and the only other place my photos of my newborn son were was my iphone (thank god for iTunes and synching!). I managed to download the photos from my phone to Mac using iRip, otherwise it was going to cost me $2000+ to have my hard drive restored (I've well and truly learnt my lesson there!). Anyway, not sure if it works from phone to computer, but it might be worth have a poke around and seeing if it works the other way - at least it's an inexpensive alternative! Failing that,, it might be a visit to your friendly Apple store.
