T-Mobile's Sidekick LX gets pictured, loved

by Chris Ziegler posted Oct 1st 2007 at 6:56PM

Most of us have to wait until late October to get our hands on Danger's latest Hiptop sensation, but Boy Genius Report? Yeah, not so much on the waiting. Mr. Genius has scored a retail example of the LX, playing with the device and shooting a handful of glamor shots in the process. Despite its size -- it's quite a bit larger than its Slide stablemate -- it's said to be thin, comfortable, and "right" in the hand, the operating system is predictably Danger perfect, and the display is supposed to be a total stunner. Makes the wait that much harder, doesn't it? Hit the read link for the full gallery!

So I guess that eBay auction was for real. The picture of the box from the auction is/was the same as BGR's.

You can't be serious? Sidekick's keyboard is superior, it's web browser, email app, and it's Instant Messaging application by a miles.

But Verizon's EVDO beats Tmobiles POS network any day... What good is a web browser when it takes almost 1 min to load a page.

Looks sweet as sugar. Hope I can get my mitts on it when it drops. Anyone know what the MSRP will be?

Does the Sidekick LX come with the Little strappy thing that hangs on to your wrist?
