The phrase "VP of Litigation" is very interesting.

It seems this person want to be able to get access to deleted information
on a Palm OS(r) unit, just like people can do on PC's.  So that if you
enter then delete some personal information, a person who gets hold
of that Palm OS unit, legally or illegally, can retrieve that information.

If you provide this person with assistance, just be aware of the possible
purposes your information could be used for.

It also begs the question, that how can one safely clean off the contents
of RAM without taking the batteries out and leaving the unit in a drawer
for a week.   Does a hard reset actually remove the contents of RAM or
just reset a bunch of pointers, and leave the raw information on RAM
waiting to be lifted off by the use of some clever software?
