Default Missing data from Outlook's contacts - Desperate for help

I'm using a HP iPAQ pocket PC which is windows & backing it up onto Outlook 2007 for a few years now. There was no problem until I bought a 32GB 3GS Apple iPhone in Nov/2009 when I tried to transfer the data from Outlook 2007 to iTunes. I was informed beforehand by Rogers' & Apple's techs that it can be done & they are compatible without any problems. Therefore I synced & downloaded the data to the iPhone. Initially things looked good until I accessed my contacts which have missing info about my clients. I was writing about stuff that we talked about, things that had to be done, due dates & etc. I examined the iPhone, Outlook & PDA's contacts but can't find the info & freaking out at the current moment. I'm praying that the data is in limbo & it can be retrieved, but not lost permanently. Please help & share some of your wisdom and/or experiences with me to overcome this huge problem. Thank you!

Synchronization changes are permanent. No one would ever synchronize without
first backing up their data, so retrieve your Contact data from your most
recent backup.
