I’ve been wanting a sidekick for some time. I have an iPod touch and as well and good as it is it still hasn’t made the best phone. I wanted t to ask though does anyone know if imable to use the sidekick as a Bluetooth keyboard? ’cause if so that would be sweet! Please email me if you know the answer to this homer86@hotmail.com thanks everyone!

The sidekick 2008 is awesome, it does everything i could want from a phone. Like, its awesome… i think the only thing it could do better is better internet viewing, and a flash player for it. Other than that its top notch.

Dude are you really that lonely and lifeless that you have to trash talk a phone that’s probably so much cooler than yours…? And how old are you anyway like 36? This phone was meant for teens and a younger generation not 30 yr old men who are desperate and dont have a life… so you and all your other little 30 and 40 yr old tech dorks can take your malicious reviews and shove it…

The reasons I choose a Sidekick instead of any other, including an iPhone.

* unlimited everything for $20.00
* ability to do cut and paste
* all data stored in the cloud, even if my phone is destroyed, my data never is
* I can edit all my stored data online.
* availability of third party apps for years.
* open platform for which I can write my own apps.
* has always had a separate number row on keyboard
* stable as all hell, crashes much less than any windows mobile or iPhone
* can use with all of my mail accounts. POP3, Hotmail, Yahoo…
* can pair with a bluetooth keyboard allowing me to take notes for an entire day without charging, unlike my laptop
* the only phone with a terminal application allowing me to remotely login to computers with a shell account.
* I never come close to dropping it with the fliptop

This was all available on the Sidekick][. I am using the Sk3 now and will upgrade to the new model with video as soon as my contract allows. At which time I will just put in my sim card and all data will be uploaded in a matter of minutes.
Show me another phone that can do all this and I’ll switch today.

i would have to say that you are somewhat of an idiot. the sidekick has the best aim/chat of any other phone on the market. no other phone can keep your connection alive and give you custom away messages while on the phone and/or texting. i think that perhaps you are being a presumptuous snob. yes, sure, endorse the iphone because it makes you feel “cool”. its not like you have any friends to chat with on the iphone anyway.

i agree with tim. i’m barely 21 and i love the sk. everything i need at a good price. and no, i dont want a tilt or blackberry or iphone. while they do alot, it’s just not my style. very content with sk. yeah it could have better updates but it seriously IS NOT that bad.

and getting upset about a name is pretty pathetic. again, it’s not that serious.
