Sharp Hiptop 3 / Sidekick 3
Remember your downloaded games and ringtones?
Kiss them good-bye. The library of games/applications is about 1/3 of what was avail to SK2 and what you had doesn't transfer over. So you can either rebuy what you had (if even avail) or you can talk to customer service (transferred twice) to get some kind of credit. I still have to call back and talk to the next higher ups to get more than one ringtone and one game download credit. Have to do later because after 30 minutes, I had other things to do than talk to t-mobile.
But, other than that really like the SK3.

It actually says that you can redownload what you had for no additinal charge.

lol.. hopefully thats something they get fixed soon... no reason why danger shouldnt be able to upload all your apps and info to the sk3 when you login with old info just as they did with any other sk version... silly

It's a different device that costs at least $300, when I can get a new Nokia for free. 🙂 If T-Mobile wants to give me a free Sidekick III upgrade (canceling your contract will cost you about the same as the Sidekick, so it's only fair, right?), I'll be more than happy to re-pay for my Terminal application and ringtones.
Truth is, the whole cell industry in the US is free-market screwy. T-mobile and Danger have a niche market in Sidekick users and will continue to charge for as much as they can get away with so long as it's popular.
After reading PhoneScoop's review of the SK3, I don't see a reason to switch, and the lack of transferring applications is just another one of those thorns in the side. Ah well, will just have to wait and s...
