I'm anxious to hear, once available to the public, what transpired in those last moments. The documentary speculated that the pilots didn't move fast enough. Supposedly the plane had its nose dipped below 45 degree angle and the pilots were trying to get the nose up. They think the plane didn't have enough speed, which caused it to stall. I guess if your plane is malfunctioning during the night over the Atlantic, you're pretty much SOL - without visibility or a functioning computer.
