    "Danger got the message"

    by Yond Ranger on June 29, 2006

    Pros: Better keyboard, good body, very solid

    Cons: Opening the screen to expose they keyboard can be tedious to not damage it

    Summary: I got this phone earlier today and I have been using it to see if it compares to the Sidekick II. The screen is the same as the Sidekick II, if it seems dim, turn the brightness up.Volume is great on speakerphone and handset mode. Aww mann...the keyboard is phenomenal.. It's better than the 2's keyboard. Each key is individual unlike the rubber stick on buttons for the 2. The trackball is pretty stylistic. Navigation buttons are set up nicely too. When you open the screen, it sounds like the screen is scraping the left side. Maybe that's just a worry I have. More customization options too. Oh, and ringtones and applications from my previous sidekick II did not load onto the device when I activated it. I guess I have to buy them again. Overall, it's a wonderful change from my sidekick II...

    Yep...it surely is. Better be in T-Mobile's line at 6am because I have a strong feeling that the 3 will disappear faster than tacos at a fiesta

    I use to have the sidekick II and could not wait to order the sidekick 3. I received it on June 30 and was not satisfied at all with the device. The color (as with all the sidekicks) on the screen is washed out, the regular song ringtones that came with the sidekick II, you would have to purchase them on the sidekick 3! I was so disgusted, I sent my sk3 back and have the MDA. I feel the sk3 is very juvenile. If you have the sidekick II, don't even bother with getting the 3rd one. It's exactly the same, except for the keyboard and mp3 player. The camera sucks big time. Save your money and time!!!
