as far as i know you cannot do anything to restore the lost file from your n900, but you can try to connect ur n900 to PC as mass drive and try to recover the files with any good recovery program

+1 for this answer.
The FAT file system deletion is not a secure delete. Recovery is possible if you have not added data. Shut off your phone immediately and connect in mass storage mode. Use a good recovery tool and you should get most of your data back.

If you're using Windoze, this is a good file recovery tool:

Use it myself.

There's also Photorec which is also available in the repos. I think though, that you'd have to run it from a PC with your N900 connected as mass storage unless your downloaded files were on a card instead of internal memory....
