T-Mobile rolls out Sidekick Slide Scarlet

by Chris Ziegler posted May 16th 2008 at 6:38PM

As expected, Motorola and T-Mobile have materialized a new variant of the Sidekick Slide, replacing that rather polarizing shade of purple with... well, an equally polarizing shade of red. The Sidekick Slide Scarlet, as it's known, features the same QVGA display, 1.3 megapixel cam, microSD slot, and Hiptop-first sliding display as the original and is available starting today for $199.99 on contract.

they dont care about releasing shietty phones, please always get other phones, unlock them, then bring them to their network. so they dont care as long as they get ur month to month service. even if theres "those people" that have had t-mobile for 5+ yrs, and have never bought a phone through them

I used to like the sidekick styling, now it seems that they're becoming more and more childish

I love how it says "Slide to Dial!" when the screen is already out, at least the LX pictures have it closed when it says "Open to Dial!". Sidekicks could be way better if they dropped the crappy software, beefed up the hardware (faster CPU, more RAM, 3G) and actually put it on a decent GSM network like AT&T so someone could actually take full advantage of the device.

That thing is so ugly. It looks worse than the original (which I own) and I'd be very disappointed if anyone over the age of 13 had one of those.

It's sad people are so bitter and have nothing better to do witht heir time than to be negative about a cell phone. I mean really if you're going to be pissy...have it mean something. I.E. war, election, gas prices...not a cell phone...Really? Anyway, I'm extremely happy with my phone...NO COMPLAINTS. And everyone I know with it feels the exact same way. SOooo...yeah.
