Danger registers for both Electronics and Audio booth?
Today marked the first day of the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona, which runs till Feb 16th. Danger has two booths registered there, and it is rumoured that one is in the Audio section of the congress. Could this be the announcement of the Sidekick III? (They don’t seem to have a section for “Pet Control” so it’s hard to tell)
In addition to the exhibition, there is the GSM Association Awards on Feb 14th with categories such as
We can’t tell if Danger is in the running or not, but we will definitely keep an ear out to see if they win anything. Anyone out in Barcelona this week?
-thanks to “p” for the heads up-

I hate to burst everyone’s bubble but the “rumor” that they have an “electronics” booth and an “audio/visual” booth comes from some guy who looked at the list of exhibitors for the 3gsm world conference and say the prefaced letter for the two booths Danger has. E and AV. E doesn’t mean electronics. Inside the buildings they are ordered into arbitrary sections A, B, C, D, E, F, etc. AV doesn’t mean Audio/Video, it just means the booth is along the Avenue (The AV is given for all booths along the Avenue. For more info, look at the actual floorplans at the 3gsm world conference site.
As to the question, “Why would Danger be there if not to show off another device?” I can think of one good reason- there is no better place to make contacts and try and woo new carriers (particurally European carriers).

Well that thing for new carriers. Dat could be right. But listen. Sk3 comes out april. Wouldn’t they announce it soon? I mean were r half way thre february. Now wouldn’t be a good idea for danger to take there sk3 and show it off?

Danger is for sure running. But the question dat was asked. If they will be showing there sk3 or the “audio” device dat some people say there running for. But for sure they are in the exhibition.

Yada, yada, yada. That’s all I’m reading. I want to read this “SK3 WILL BE RELEASED TOMORROW, FEBUARY 14, 2006” Ha, damn danger. I plan on venturing to other devices now…patience is running low!

like the guy above me, my patience is also running low . . . i love my sidekick, but there are new kick ass phones on the market ! !

I also agree…
With so many other devices that can do what the sk2 does and hell of alot more… I honestly feel that danger has to do something or they are going to be losing out of a pretty good chunk of money from users switching to other devices

i think that sidekick has a niche in the market with so many diehard fans that they will always have customers. the sidekick is the only phone that does what it does and is fashionable, and being THE ONLY one, it has a monopoly, and can do whatever the hell it wants. hopefully it does good stuff.
