Sidekick Slide Ships
T-Mobile today rolled out its promised Sidekick Slide messaging phone. True to the original announcement, the Danger/Motorola collaboration is the smallest Sidekick to date and is the only model to slide open rather than swivel. It still maintains the features of the Sidekick 3 and larger models with a 1.3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and music playback from microSD cards using AAC, MP3, or WMA formats.
The handset comes preloaded with a custom MyFaves app from T-Mobile for calling favorites and includes multi-network IM chat and web browsing. The finalized version of the Slide ships in a black and purple two-tone scheme and is priced at $200 with a two-year contract and rebate. Pricing without a contract is currently set at $300.
