Re: Hard reset not the same as the manual
There's two ways to wipe your machine...
1) Hard reset using a spasm inducing combination of keys while pressing the Power button to turn the phone on. This method WILL NOT wipe the 4GB of flash memory (AKA Internal Storage), and there's no option to do so at that time. When I used this option, the entire contents of my flash memory were still there, so re-installing everything was pretty painless (as I had a folder of all my CAB files).

2) Use the "Clear Storage" control panel item. This option will allow you to clear the RAM/ROM OR the 4GB of flash memory OR both. But if you can't get into your system, this isn't really an option.
