Executive software makes Undelete which I think has a trial period, and is about $29.95 or so.  Check it out at www.executivesoftware.com, and maybe do a google search for data recovery software.  I'll bet you'll get a lot of hits, and many will have trial periods, and some may be free.  Take a look.
