People will no longer have to worry about their contact lists being booty called by strangers should they choose to sell their iPhone. Thanks to the upcoming iPhone 2.0’s new secure data removal tool you will be able to actually remove all that highly private personal data stored in the flash memory.

The new tool will not only erase the data, but then also proceed to write over the places in memory that were used ensuring that no one will be able to retrieve anything useful. The process will take approximately 1 hour for an 8GB iPhone and you will need to leave it charging during the process.

*Remember the current 1.1.4 data removal tool doesn’t do a very good job of deleting your data and leaves your data open to prying eyes should you sell it.
