Sidekick LX Release Date: October 24th
Ahh blurry pictures (of pictures) of new devices, our favorite. No words needed other than, October 24th. Well, maybe you want to know what the card says without squinting:
The wait is almost over! On October 24 during store business hours, you can bring this card to the retail location where you received it and we’ll have a new Sidekick LX waiting for you to purchase. With fantastic features like access to MySpace 24/7, and a larger, sharper high res screen, you won’t be disappointed
Thanks JRE!

Pretty cool how Danger can continue to make new devices for years and years with really nothing new about any of them.
The differences between the original B&W Hiptop and the Sidekick LX in the grand scheme of things are pretty minimal considering how many years it’s been.

Finally!! Looks really small too!
September 20th, 2007 at 12:09 pm
and how do you get one of these cards?
September 20th, 2007 at 12:30 pm
I wonder how much they want for a bigger screen put on a SK3? $300.00!!!!
September 20th, 2007 at 1:38 pm
YES!! finally..but how the heck do we get one of these cards??
September 20th, 2007 at 2:05 pm
Well, at least that means I only need to wait a month to replace my sometimes malfunctioning SK3.
Unless I get an AT&T Tilt…
September 20th, 2007 at 2:24 pm
ay anyone knows wats is improve over than the screen?
September 20th, 2007 at 2:43 pm
Alright. There is something I don’t understand. Why are there two different new sidekicks coming out at the same time? My sidekick 3 doesn’t work that well anymore so I will order one of those on the internet as soon as it comes out.
So, is the only difference they just swivel their screens in different ways? Or which one will come to the US? or both? Or one of them will come out this october and the other one will come out later?
Somebody please explain to me why there are two and which one should I get??

On September 26th thru October 17th. You go to a TMOBILE STORE. And request a Sidekick LX Reserve card. Which means you’ll come in on OCTOBER 24TH TO BUY IT. WHEN U GO BUY IT U HAND THE CARD TO THE REP AT THE TMOBILE STORE THAT U GOT IT AT. -JRE

On September 26th thru October 17th you go to a TMOBILE STORE. YOU request a SIDEKICK LX Reserve Card, which means that on OCTOBER 24TH, YOU’LL GO, AND HAND THE REP YOUR CARD AND YOU COULD GO AND BUY YOUR SIDEKICK LX.

ive called tmobile and they said they arent having it until next year
September 20th, 2007 at 4:28 pm
So we can go starting on next wednesday.. ask for a sidekick lx reserve card adn they will hand it to us? will we know more information about the phone by then?
does anyone know the price? or the definite features?
how can t-mobile expect us to go run out and buy the phone if we dont know whats on it!
September 20th, 2007 at 4:42 pm
LOLLL they’re LYING!! Nd that’s bc u suckas aint supposed to KNOW!!!!!!!!!! Trust me go there SEPTEMBER 26TH & ASK FOR IT. YOU’LL THANK ME LATER!!
September 20th, 2007 at 5:26 pm
do these reserve cards cost money? or are they just something you go up there and ask for?
September 20th, 2007 at 6:05 pm
THEY’RE FREE!
NO SPEC’S NOR COST HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED YET!
September 20th, 2007 at 6:14 pm
Does anyone know how much it is going to cost?
Perhaps any of the other features besides better resolution on the screen and a bigger screen?
September 20th, 2007 at 6:27 pm
so startin the 26th or the 17th we can get the cards?
September 20th, 2007 at 6:42 pm
that’s wassup man. i’ma wait til i see the specs for it before i get too happy though. hopefully there are some big improvements, if not i will probably just get it for the new OS, unless the sidekick 3 will also be getting a OS update as well which i doubt.
September 20th, 2007 at 6:44 pm
I hope we can get Music ID
September 20th, 2007 at 10:04 pm
When the sidekick 3 came out the price was $300 with a two yr contract, $350 with a 1 yr, and $399 for prepaid. Im guessing the same goes for the sidekick lx.
September 21st, 2007 at 8:47 am
no way the SK3 gets an OS update, they want people to buy the new phone for that, not stick with older model.
September 21st, 2007 at 11:23 am
omg this is fuken awesome i cant wait….and my birthday is on the 26th…im going in to tmobile for sure getting me a sidekick lx card no fuken doubt but how much do u guys think the phones gonna cost prepaid?
September 21st, 2007 at 1:54 pm
the pics of the device is the back of the card said BGR. and im gettin the sidekick LX!!!
September 22nd, 2007 at 7:41 am
Awesome, I can’t wait. I’m gonna go get one of those cards.
September 24th, 2007 at 6:48 am
Just called T-Mobile and they said they had no idea what I was talking about! I want this too be confirmed because I don’t want to look like a retart,asking for the reservation cared!
September 24th, 2007 at 9:19 am
when we get a reserve card are they gonna take down our information so when i come in on the 24th they will have one waiting for me at the tmobile store or no? another thing is i have a sidekick 3 prepaid right now so do i have have to swap the sim card out and put it into the sidekick 4 or do i need to get a new sim card?
September 24th, 2007 at 6:43 pm
unless the rep hands me a free one thats the only way I’ll get one. Sidekick is a rip off they need to stop charging so much for the same phone year after year. The Sidekick III is by far the best one to come out.
Myspace works just fine on the browser I dont need a Myspace Mobile. The screen thing, its still smaller than some other phones like the iPhone. The email is still small you get enough pictures and it fills up quick. I just can’t understand like the hype for this or the Slide. The Slide looks out of date. Overseas in Europe & Asia, they get all the exclusive phones theres no way theyll sell a bunch of these unless its in Canada or Australia (refering to the Slide). They could have at least upgraded the camera to 2.0 Megapixel and added video
September 24th, 2007 at 7:58 pm
Totally agree. Its 2008 T Mobile.
September 24th, 2007 at 9:43 pm
i talkd to the district manager and the manager of my local tmobile retail store and they said it was gonna come out march 16th or 18th dont remember i was drunk but what heck why is everyone confusing everyone. are you sure i can go on wednesday i dont wanna look like an idiot and asking for something they dont know anything about
September 24th, 2007 at 11:54 pm
Look at the MOST RECENT post on the SITE!!!!! GO AND GET ONE!! Are you sure you’re calling a “Corporate” T-Mobile store?!?!?
September 25th, 2007 at 12:48 am
already got my reserve card and tmobile told me this isnt the sidekick 4 its just the lx slimmer and updated version of the sidekick 3 so u guys who thinks its the sidekick 4 u are wrong!!! sidekick 4 isnt out yet so if u want a slimmer and widescreen 3″ sidekick 3 with myspace options then the lx is right for u otherwise stick with your sidekick 3 and wait till the 4 comes out cause the lx isnt a sidekick 4!!!
September 25th, 2007 at 9:12 am
How do u even kno there will b a sidekick 4. There naming sestem has completly changed. Afta the lx may b the sidekick ef then the sidekick jk.
September 25th, 2007 at 1:20 pm
DOES THE SIDEKICK LX HAVE VIDEO ON IT?
September 25th, 2007 at 4:58 pm
no
September 25th, 2007 at 5:02 pm
Apparently, this is just the sidekick lx, just the hiptop 3 wit a make over and there will b a sidekick 4. So w8 4 the sidekick 4 if u want video, it shuld have it. The lx was made 4 the ppl hu want 2 buy a sidekick 3 but don’t lyk its chunkyness or screen size.
September 25th, 2007 at 6:47 pm
i dont even think theres gonna be a sidekick 4 and hamilton how would u know about a sidekick 4 commin out?
September 25th, 2007 at 6:56 pm
It was my personal opinon. If u look at it logicly, ppl sed that the sidekick 3 had a crappy screen and was 2 fat. So out cums the sidekick lx, thinner larger screen and my space as it was the most comannly used web cyt on the sidekick. So they were listning 2 wat it needed. So now every 1 is saying better camera and video, there gonna listen and the lx shuld have it. That’s my personal opion ker5e. Ans I kno there is gonna b a sidekick 4 sumin out coz as long as there are heaps of ppl drowling over them, witch there is they will keep on bringin then out.
September 27th, 2007 at 10:21 am
Yeah.Got mines on the 26th.
Just got to call the lady back and tell her the color I want.
What’s the price for an upgrade?
August 2nd, 2008 at 10:46 am
does the sidekick lx come out in england?
if so, what will the price be?
August 15th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
Should i get the new sidekick 2008 or wait tell better phones come out?
February 27th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
I cant wait until this comes out!!!!!!!
April 27th, 2009 at 5:40 pm
Can you set a song frm your music play list as your ringtone?
May 13th, 2009 at 5:33 am

June 15th, 2009 at 7:46 pm

July 11th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
