You are right, forget my last posting, saturday night, maybe I had one beer to much. 
Nothing deleted in this case, luckily.

Nokia PC-Suite will only backup contacts, calendar and other PIM data. It will not help if you delete or change system files. For a systembackup of all files you will need backupmenu which saves and restores whole partitions to image files.
If you don't know backupmenu you should better not use such risky commands in the terminal unless you know exactly what it does.
As said, if you forgot to type the dot, or if your working directory had been /, not one file would be left. Where did you get that tip?
@ everyone, thanx for the help, glad I didn't delete anything important.

if you do (from anywhere) rm -r .* it will wipe out everything, as .* will include ".." which is the parent directory (i.e. / if run from /root)
