"I would say the Slide is better, but not for some"
Pros: SLIDE: smaller size, better screen than SK 3, Motorola quality, cheaper. LX: Bigger screen.
Cons: SLIDE: Smaller screen, no fashionable "swing" mechanism, still no 2 mp camera, and still no video taking abilities. LX: Pricey, bigger size, still no 2 mp camera, and still no video taking abilities.
Summary: I would say that the Slide is a better choice. First of all, it has a smaller size, physically. It no longer has the decidedly breakable "swing" screen machanism, and the screen itself is better than the SideKick 3's, even if it's not any bigger (though the small screen might not look as out of place on a smaller device like the Slide). Plus, it has the Motorola quality. If you've ever had a Rizr Z3 from T-mobile, you'll know that Motorola knows how to make a good slider phone. The biggest factor for me is that it's also $100 cheaper.
The LX could be a better choice, but only because it has a larger screen. Also, it has the "swing" screen, so if you really like that, then you'll want the LX. Aside from the larger screen (and remember; it has the same resolution as the Slide, so the screen might be bigger, but not better), I can not see how the LX is better. Especially when it costs $300, and still has only a 1.3 megapixel camera.

The fact its Motorola sells me on it as well. Sharp has proven to be large and bulky while Moto at least tries to get significantly smaller. I keep hearing through some "questionable" friends of mine that work at a T-Mobile store that the Slide IS going to have video. We will see Nov. 7.
