... Microsoft ‘My Phone’ that allows users to access, manage and back up
their personal information on their device to a password-protected
Web-based service. ...

It may be password-protected, but is it also outage-protected?

The T-Mobile/Sidekick/Microsoft/Danger fiasco is still too fresh in my memory.
