Plain-named sequel


30 July 2008 9:27 GMT / By Amy-Mae Elliott

Simply called the "Sidekick", T-Mobile has officially revealed the latest addition to its beloved-by-teens messenger phone line.

This is the first Sidekick to launch since Microsoft bought out the company, Danger, that designs the phone's software.

The new edition boasts a 400 x 240 WQVGA display, 2-megapixel camera with video recording capability, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, and a microSD slot.

In addition, further appealing to the yoof market, the Sidekick gets user-customisable shells, available directly from sidekickshells.com for $14.99 a pop.

The T-Mobile Sidekick is available in the States now in select T-Mobile stores and online for $150 on a 2-year contract.
