I was looking into selling my old iPhone 2G. It looks that erase all content and settings was the best way to remove the data from the phone - but does this make the phone safe to sell without have to worry about someone getting my personal data from the phone.
Got a tip for us?

Apple even upgraded their wipe command after some complaints that it didn't fully remove all user data. My understanding now is the wipe is very thourogh.
