Short Answer: No

Unless you can fork out $200 for data recovery, Which may not work, Then you may be out of luck :(

Hmmm. Yah, probably. I recently un-formatted a CompactFlash card. Not sure if you can unformat a SD card though. Try CardRecovery. http://www.cardrecovery.com/?rid=google&kid=cr0102. Try the trail before buying just to check.

as long as after u formated it, u din add anything into the SD card, i think it is possible to retrive ur data back.

there is a program called recover4all, u can go google about it. the chance of recovery is higher if ur SD card is in FAT format.
