Tmobile Announces New Sidekicks



Tmobile earlier announced the upcoming releases of the Sidekick Slide and the Sidekick LX, the LX being released on Oct. 17th for current subscribers and Oct. 24 for non subscribers, then the Slide will be released Nov. 7th.  The LX will set you back $299.99 and the Slide will go for $199.99.

The new designs are very similar to current designs although a  bit slimmed down and with a smoother look.  The sidekick is starting to look like it's not a toy anymore.

The LX features the trademark swivel display, while the Slide features.. you guessed it, a sliding screen.  This could be a big change and there is really no telling if this will catch on or completely flop, maybe that's why Tmobile released both editions close together.  Also finally Tmobile has added MMS support and the Sidekick is now quadband.  Although the camera and such are pretty much the same, I would assume that you can expect much better service with this new handheld as compared to it's predecessors.
