Tony Hawk Sidekick LX now available to upgraders

by Chris Ziegler, posted Jul 11th 2008 at 10:28AM

The riff raff need not apply just yet (you know who you are), but current T-Mobile subscribers can now get in on Tony Hawk's totally tubular Sidekick LX, featuring the skateboarding mogul's branding and a healthy dose of "grip tape" texture around back. Pricing will vary depending on your upgrade situation, but most folks will hopefully have an opportunity to pay less than the $449.99 full retail sticker. Right now T-Mobile itself appears to be the only source for the phone, but Best Buy should be coming online shortly if that's how you prefer to roll.

I'm not referring to the skateboarding, I'm referring to the sidekick.... you know, what the article is ABOUT. I don't think skateboarding is only for 5th graders, but the majority of sidekick owners (to my knowledge) are pretty young.
