he also forgot to tell you guys that the Sidekick 2008 can multi-task like you can text while your on a phone call. Web browse while listening to music and while you on instant messaging and texting someone. I recommend the Sidekick 2008 or LX 2009 for anyone who can multi-task like these phones.
@worldstar28 Yes SIDEKICK'S can be prepaid !! its 1 dollar preday unlimited web browsing you have to pay 20 cent per minute and 3 cent per text message. You can still access the T-mobile store to download ring tones and Apps. BUT NO INSTANT MESSAGING YOU NEED A MESSAGING PLAN WHICH MEANS YOU NEED MONTHLY SRVICES.
i got the new lx 2009 and its a peace of shit you pay 40.00 extra for internet and the internet is always not working.crap i tell you so much more problem i hated that a spent all that money on it.
i have the lx 09...... danger is trying to fix whatever is going on...anyone wit a sidekick is having this problem..... but the lx 09 is a great phone i love it
DO NOT buy this phone! Tmobile just lost all of my contacts! Everyone with a sidekick just lost everything. No contacts, pics, nothing. Gone forever. Tmobile you really screwed up this time. I've been a loyal customer since 2004.
oh but anyways here were i live (singapore, Asia) i went everywhere but they dont have em ): i think they dont sell them here but a guy sayd their out of stock so do u noe a website were u can order them or sumethin?
idk if its everywhere but where i live theres a problem with the sidekicks, so good luck on your sidekick im gonna be getting the LX 09 very soon cant wait. good luck on your new phone, and happy birthday
u do know that a hiptop and sidekick sre the same phone, right? the phone has two names. i think that there called hiptops in other countries but in others its called a sidekick. lol
yea my sidekick stopped working on me i hate it. i always have to have a charger on me WHERE EVER I GO . everytime the phone dies i lose all my contacts and my faves. this phone is lame nobosy get it .
i've had mine for about 5 months or so. i have a feeling a got the bad one of the bunch. i've had nothing but problems out of it. i've had to reboot it 3 times and my internet just up and quit working. so i restart it and now it won't show my favs and in the inbox it just shows numbers but when i go to reply it says the name and number of the person in my phone. yes i have the data services thing done. this phone is really starting to annoy the piss out of me. for a smart phone its not to smart.
Hey just wondering, but do you HAVE to have the screen swiveled out like in the video to do basic stuff on the phone? And is it annoying to have to use the phone sideways all the time? (when you're not texting). btw 3:20 omg Children of Bodom best band ever!
Definitely the sidekick! The only thing that I can't decide with this phone is which version of the sidekick to get. I liked the bigger versions with the swivel screen but the sidekick slide is cool too. Maybe I could get both. But, anyway. Definitely the sidekick!!!
its a special offer for the back to school thing its only 79.99 but i went and bought it for 20 and every month until i pay the 80 i have to pay 20 its awesome i bought it today.
ok. well add a touchscreen. when did i say it needs to be a full touch phone? you can have keys and a touchscreen on the same device. just opening it, dialing, then closing it to call is retarded. add a touchscreen, you can dial on the front, without all the open, close crap, and then use the keys to type messages, url's etc. thats how my phone works, and i love it. nothing to give me a thumbs down over.
No this is one of the latest sidekicks ever .. but the sidekick 1 was the first sidekick made which was about 2004 or something .. this was made in 2008 thats why its called sidekick 2008
well, it would be REALLY hard to get it there, as they are only sold in US. BUT you could try to find someone on ebay whoo would send it to you, and then you could unlock it there and put in whatever plan you want...
so it's not touchscreen? :(
