However, I have an additional problem, and this basically will not work for me. My problem is that all the annotations I took were "notes" via the "stylus". Ie, they were not typed in using the onboard (painfully slow) keyboard. So I doubt that the annotation file will let me recover those "drawn-with-stylus" notes.
But it will be interesting to see what that file contains, and if it contains at least the highlighted text, and/or the page numbers of the bookmarks.

From memory, the annotation file is in xml format and for each annotation contains the first 100 characters of the highlighted text, obscure references to the specific html file and the position of the text in that file, and all notes. In other words, you should be able to extract all of your notes from the file relatively easily. (I say 'should' as I have only mucked around with annotation files for DRM free epubs/pdfs). Good luck!
