Sidekick ID uncovered

could you give us a rundown of the stats here in the thread?

 

IT DOESNT EVEN HAVE EDGE!!!!??!???????!?????????

WOW!!! They are almost worse than Moto.............going and making things that look the same with different feaures or different aims such as media or business...........thats ridiculous...........you would think the Sidekick would at least have been engineered to the frequencies that T-Mobile is permitted to use for UMTS...........UGH!!!!!!!!!

 

EDGE is specifically not included to keep the price down (amongst other features). The SK is usually a lot more than $99. This is a cheaper version of the current SK3 - it's not a 4th edition.

 

wow...........that really sux...........and none of the sidekicks have EDGE?

 

Actually the SK3 as seen here on phonescoop does come with class 10 EDGE support. http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=964

 

my friend said that she felt that the SK3 was not as good as the SK2...........do you have any idea why she might say this.............does anyone agree with her?

 

The only person I know who uses a SK has had all three versnios over the years and she likes the SK3 best.

 

i would think so too but my friend says that she thinks that the SK2 runs better and is less buggy or something............idk ill have to ask her

 

I was under the impression that the SK3 eliminated most if not all of the bugs that the SK2 had. Most times by the time a newer cell phone comes out, the SW is updated to correct any problems that the past models may have had.

 

well like i said ill ask her next time i see her

 

ppl just love the colors. *wooo* Bye a skin ppl. The standard sk3 has edge, camera and bluetooth. But still not bad for a standard sk. :biggrin:

 

i got to hold my friends sidekick today...........i was so jealous.........its one of the only times that you get good deals on internet and things like that...........unlimited texting etc................but my budget doesnt do great with the Sidekick plans

 

Ur right, it all comes down to money. With Prepaid the sidekick unlimited data features cost $1.00 a day. For Contract it's like a $20.00 add-on

 

its one of those things where you want everything but its actually a star that you are seeing through a telescope and its all the way on the other side of the universe :hmm:

:deal:

 

awww Well I have a used SK2 I could sell you? The star could be closer.... :browani:

 

nah thanx anyway........my contract with Sprin doesnt expire until November of 08 and then i'll want the SK3..............i like the 3 more than the 2............thanx for the hope!!! hehe

 

No problem dude. Good luck.

BTW, does anyone want to see the official press release from TMO about the SK ID?

 

what was the point of releasing the SK ID anyway???? it doesnt even look like its nearly as good as the SK3 anyway???

 

According to Mobiledia the SK iD will be released on April 25th, for $99.00 on a 2ry agreement and - $50 MIR.

 

At a lowered retail price of $99 I'd say they did it to make it more affordable.
The SK iD isn't going to have a camera, but will have changeable colors.

 

oh well............i would never buy that though........if i get a sidekick i will ge tthe SK3
