Much better than the color sidekick
I have had my sidekick II for a couple of days now. So far so good. I will post more details as i use it more. I just bought the data plan. the device is still too big to use as a phone, doesn't fit in your pocket nicely. Obviously the IM is the best out there. Sync with outlook is just as good with palm. Small differences, you can't sync notes. No synch cables, all done through the internet, AWESOME so easy to use. Keyboard is great, just as good as blackberry, Camera sucks, flash sucks, email is good but cannot sync. Price is great 199 from online dealer. Serves my needs as a data device. I still use my MOT V80 for voice under a different contract.
T-Mobile Sidekick II's For sale
XRS Wireless is a growing company located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, specializing in Wireless Phone Sales for GSM, TDMA and CDMA service. The feature that makes XRS Wireless unique company is that it is not an Authorized Dealer for any particular cellular-subscriber company. Simply stated, if you want to be signed up with a contract for T-Mobile, Verizon, Nextel, AT&T, etc., we are of no help to you. We say this because often times a person may want to buy a new phone and will find a company, whether located online or in the mall, and the company will not offer the phone by itself. What ends up happening is some commission hungry salesperson tries to convince the buyer to either switch providers to get a new phone, extend the contract fo...

Sidekick 2 Carry Cases
Does anyone know when T-Mobile will release better carrying cases? I have heard the one that comes with it is hideous
Battery Life??? Any ideas
How is the battery life on this think. I had the color side kick for a week and loved it but returned it b/c the battery life was so bad. Similar to my MOT V80, love it but the battery life sucks.
Sidekick II released Sept 20th
To all your sidekickers, we just got the release date, and it is available through T-Mobile as of the 20th. There's a deal at www.getyoursidekick.com where you can get a $100 trade-in credit for your old Sidekick through the mail. Sucks for me, who can only sell them at $299 from the store. Slimmer, lighter, hopefully a bit more durable, 640x480 camera (WAY better than the old one), all the other stuff is pretty much the same, which is to say, pretty cool. I just hope they don't break as easily as the Beta-version.
New Sidekick on the way??
I know it's a little early for this question. But I wanted to know if Danger is thinking about making/launch a new sidekick 3 later on within the next year or so?? B/c I just got my Samsung 415 slider phone the day it came out in july for like $320.00. And I really cant get a new cell phone. But I really like the Sidekick 2 and my slider phone also. But if a new sidekick comes out later on after my samsung phone has gotten a little old & stuff ... Get me?? Like in year or so(when I would be able to upgrade)... So I would be aware head of time so I don't have to get another phone in like a year or whatever. And I could get the sidekick 3(if it comes out)...
I know I probally wrote it in a confusing way 😳 but didn't know how else to expl...

Got SK ll
Just getting around to playing w my sk 2, saw that it had been shipped to p.o. and p u from there. It will only remind u of the sk 1 with better design. It's a little harder to open because of the magnets keeping the flip closed, speaker phones great, just what it needed, camera so-so, I've seen better pics, but i can live with it. All other features good. I think for my purposes this may be my last phone for a while if it holds up. Showed to some friends and they loved it. Sold the V400 for this and are not disappointed.

speed dial question
i currently have a samsung E715. Im thinking of getting the new SK II. I tried the old version awhile ago...i loved it but the bulkiness bothered me..i had a chance to see the dummy model to get a feel of its size..it seems much better...still alil bulky though...i was wondering if the skII will have a speed dial feature? That would help out alot! I dont think the old version allowed for speed dial.

SideKick II on the way 5 days
I had regestered with Tmobile for the pre release version of the Side kick. I got a email about it and called the first day. The number was busy then went down. I called again the next day and had to try for about a hour before I got thru. I asked mega questions and the lady said they were swamped with calls. The do have a limited number of them so I suggest if you want one CALL NON STOP. My deal is extent the contract 12 months and I pay 199.99 and all I do is send my origional one back. I'll have it in 4 days. Any questions feel free to ask
That "secret" phone number works now - Existing owners can trade up today
They had some problems due to high demand yesterday.
I got through about 4pm and placed my order.
Existing Sidekick owners only this week - starting next week, everyone can buy.
