Default 2.0 erased everything? What?

Ok small story. I usually sync my iPhone at my gf's house because it has our music and all that stuff. Well I updated with 2.0 but had problems with connecting to the iTunes store. I thought it could have been her connection and went over to my parents house, only to have the same problem with connecting. After a while it worked, but now it erased EVERYTHING. I don't have my contacts, texts, voicemails, music, etc. It's all gone.

Now, I'm hoping someone can tell me that because I initially downloaded and installed the 2.0 update at my gf's house, that her computer will have a backup of all of my stuff? So am I totally nuts, bolts, and screwed, or is there a backup on that computer with my stuff? Thanks!

Also, viva la V1!!!

Now you need to sync it at the location where you last synced the phone. You were supposed to sync it one more time before updating. If you'll sync it at the last computer you used to sync the phone, it'll add back all your media.
