Crikey.
That's a tough one.
i) I'm unsure about how the unsaved note mechanism would operate when the note was never saved. I dont use it.
ii) assuming that it was ever "in memory" and was never "hard written" it would probably have been splattered by now.
iii) I am assuming you have NOT rebooted since that time or you can forget b) below /tmp gets clobbered after a reboot
right so...
a) assuming it did ever get written to a "backup" then I would firstly back up my entire FAT partition. (there are tools on here for that) and then grep the lot for known words.
like grep -r "geneva" ./backupOfFatMounted/*
b) also backup the /var partition (just in case it is in /tmp) and repeat process a)
also maybe just do a hex search for known terms - why not.
c) assuming it made it onto the MMC chip (for whatever reason) I would backup my entire device (same tools) and the use a HEX EDITOR to do the same search.
as you can probably tell - there is an increasing amount of desperation in each of these steps...
I would politely suggest that if you make it to b) and have failed... then it is gone. But hey, you were backing up everything anyways...
k3flasher with dpavlins incremental dump patch could do the backup.
grep is on all? unix based systems... GHex can search hexwise.
Hope that helps.
Perhaps someone else has a greater knowledge of the notes system, Mine is just a BIG HAMMER solution.
