EWW WTF is this like the ghetto version ….. EWWWWWWWW i`d rather buy a fuxin used sidekick 2 on ebay fo 150.oo then this …. PS. I have the D-Wade Thats a real sidekick
i dont see the point in sidekicks. the special plans for texting and internet? screw that.
This phone looks like a p.o.s.! It reallt does look like sidekick 2s pieced together. I still have a 2 and I wouldn’t use a skid if someone gave it to me. Aren’t phones supposed to upgrade rather than downgrade? This phone was pointless to make. Whoever made the design drank yager bombs all night and drew this plan with a crayon. Get it together danger or I might just go to blackberry!
yeah this is just gross. arent company’s supposed to upgrade their products rather than downgrade? for real these look like spare parts. no iternet, no camera. whats the freakin point? i sitll have a sidekick2 and i would not use this crap if someone gave it too me. its just embarassing to look at. whoever mapped this one out went home that night and drank jager then drew his plans with a crayon on a pizza box. danger you guys need to get it together or i might just switch to blackberry.
yeah sidekicks back button erases all my text so i said it again. this phone sucks
I have a blackberry pearl and I can’t put it down
i’d actually use this. my friend has the SK3 and she’s “bored” with it, because she’s a brat. but i think i like this because i don’t use the camera on my RAZR as it is now, and i have an iPod, so why buy another one. it’s a basic phone, web-browser, and IM. i like it in all white with black. i’m buying it.
LOL you guys are idiots.
i have a SK3 and only paid $150 for it because my mom has been with tmobile for like 8 years, so she gets discounts on everything. and we had an old phone number for tmobile so i didn’t have to pay an activation fee.
so i’m not “mad that i paid too much for my 3″ cuz i paid just as much as this stupid shit is going to cost. it’s still ugly and it’s always going to be ugly.
everyone knows how poor quality the 3 is, so what do you assholes think this will be? considering the pieces are interchangable, i bet they’re going to randomly pop off all the time. have fun!
blondebiotch and that other gurrl, and all u haterz can shove it. bcuz this phone is tight n u know it. juss like the dude said b4, u guys with the sk2’s and 3’s juss r mad bcuz u paid all that money for it. and bcuz the sk id’s r so much cheaper. blonde biotch u r such a fukkin hater and u r sooo not gansta. whit folk can’t b gansta. not 2 b rascist.., but i kno u whit, only whit folk say ‘ganster’ so u can’t be a >gansta
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^my comment is abov^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
prolly juss a poser from a suburb. as fa u kayla… u shuldnt have even brought up ur mom working for t-mobile… its pretty fuckkin sad. so y didn u juss ask ur mom for a blk berry or sum shytt GOSH, if u didn like the sk3 soo much. and fa all yall haterz who don’t like sk id, juss say u don’t, don’t diss the ppl who don’t have all that cash in tha bank, u prolly don’t either fukkerz. if all they can afford is a sk id than so b it, thatz their bussiness. so don’t come on this forum tlkin all tht bullshyyt, if u don’t like it click out of the browser window so u cant c it, then GO THE FUCKK on wit ur wanna b wigger ass life… dayummn.
But Yahh, n e wayz I think alll the sidekicks are nyce to have it’s like a mini laptop, go on wit yo bad self danger+t-mobile =) For all the potential buyerz , it’s a nyce lil investment, fa cheap. so if u buy it and sum2 calls u cheap don’t bout they dumb azzez, IT IS JUSS A PHONE, it’ shouldnt tell whether you are rich or poor.
I have an sk3 but I’m actually thinking about trading it in for the skiD. it looks clean yo… they say the browser is faster than the sk3 and if its any smaller that’s just extra incentive. I mean I love my sk3 but the mothafuckas pretty bulky.
yeah i would have to say that i do think this phone is awesome.
i like the fact that you can change so many parts of it to whatever color you want.
when the sk3 came out i was like OOooOo bc i was rocking an sk2…but after playing with a friend’s sk3 i was so disappointed! and thought..damn well wait for the sk4 then but sadly my sk2 passed away.
i tried the treo680 and that was a bust.
i tried the lgwhite chocolate and well that’s all fine and dandy but thank GOD that tmobile came with this. its cheap. it has what i need. i actually didn’t like the extra features of the sk3. i think the only thing i’ll probably really really miss on the skID is the camera. but eh that’s me wishing that the sk2 was so interchangable in its appearance. plus i already have my ipod and a digicam so i won’t miss it that much. the sk3 kinda reminds me of the PSP..and i must say unless PSP became a phone too then i wouldn’t want to lug around this PSP looking wanna be without it having some kind of gaming feature that the sk3 DID not have.
i think i’ll be gettin an skID…use it. abuse it. and hope that the sk4’s are even fucking better.
boo on the sk3
the skid is the fucking shit.
i have had the 1, 2, and now have the 3.
i will keep my sidekick3 AND get the skid.
they are hot and yall know it and are just pissed cause they are so damn sexy looking.
SUCK IT.
yeah, you heard me.
and it’s not fugly, but however i am raged at the price.
like someone way up there said, i don’t want all these poor people fucking running around with a side kick.
NOT COOL. thanks alot danger.
it comes with aim,msn,yahoo,AND IT DOES HAVE WEB BROWSING!! for all the people that said it doesnt what more can u want the mp3 and camera sucked to begin with
Uh, so I had the sk3 and I had a sk2 and I got rid of my sk3 because it kept breaking on me, and I switched over to a dash. Biiiiiig mistake, I forgot how convienent and user friendly the sidekick’s were. I don’t see the big deal about the skiD, just because it’s cheaper doesn’t mean it sucks, but then again, how can any of us know when none of us have tried it (well, some of us may have, but you get the point.) Honestly, the mp3 player and the camera sucked big time, and all of us who were waiting so patiently for that sk3 can honestly say it was just a tad bit disappointing (such as the screen not being that much better, the mp3 player sucking, the camera still blowing big and no video play) but hey, we can’t have everything. Honestly, I’d get this just because I can change out the plates on it, but the body is a bit awkward looking and I don’t quite get what’s going on with the grey designs on the screen? Quite confusing, I’d say. Overall it’s not as ugly as people keep saying, but it’s no sk3, no why? Cause it literally isn’t.

I will be there to get the skiD as soon as it comes out i think it will be cool so i dont get why you would need snything liken bluetoooth i have a $700 bluetooth and i hate it and i have a $350 iPod that holds more photos and video’s then the sidekick could ever dream of holding and it is about the texting and instast messaging not all this other crap!
i LOVE THE SIDEKICK ID I AM DEF GANA GET IT I LOVE THE PINK ONE
i think sidekick 3 is better. this one looks like a toy. :S
SHUT THE FUCK up BITCHES!
the fact that it comes in different colors and its considerably cheaper is nice, but… no camera is pissing me off. i was planning on getting an iPod, so the no mp3 isnt that bad but no camera… ouch. if its $150, maybe the extra $50 for the sk3 would be a better bang for your buck…. i mean, the sk3 looks better too.
and btw – blondebiotch shut the fuckin fuck up, because you dont know what you’re talking about
and im not even gonna bother explaining this to you, because anyone calling paris hilton beautiful is just about as beautiful as she is: nada zip.
shes a shame to the human race, as are you.
you, just wasted precious website space. not to mention more to load for people with dial up or slow computers, and people who are probably interested in the skid.
and btw. i have a friend amanda whos her heat, hot water, electricity and cable got turned off and shes at her grandmas. and she has a sk3. shes iming me from it right now, skankwhore.
and for your info she has gorgeous dark brown hair.
why dont you go be your whorey self where it’s appropriate like in a brothel where you can work your pretty little mouth?
ummmm
all you people just hate the skid because you have a sk3 and your paid 300 bucks for it and the skid is only 100… aww dont be sad because you got ripped off…. =]
actually, most of the people here probably got their sk3s for around $200, because people who have been using t-mobile for a long time got an upgrade.
i think they are cool i would get one
just 2 use as a secondary phone 4 texting n aim…. i think its perfect… who cares abt the price n how it is compared 2 the sk 2 n 3… as long as it gets the job done…
ppl.. stop hatin on each other…. it makes no sence… y r u wasting ur time… neway…. do u n ill do me….
I think its nice, its cute and colourful, and i have a SK3 and i love it but i mean this skid is kinda cool if you only want basics, it isnt really downgrading its being realistic to those people who LIKE the design but dont want all the added benefits like the net etc. Truthfully if i want just a basic phone i’d def. buy it.
YEAH I DON’T LIKE IT AT ALLL!!! It’s like the sidekick gone re-tarted! i swear you couldn’t catch me with one ill keep my (Sidekick3) It has a camera and is overall way better looking AND the screen is smaller on the (sidekick id)
do u noe if i can use it in mexico too?
sidekick iD
cause i like this thingy alot and like i go constanly to mexico and i stay days in there so i need da cellphone to be available in that 2 country’s(usa and mexico) plzz i need an answer …………!
so, i had a sk3 and i sold it….big mistake… i miss it :(….so i am going to buy another sidekick of some sort..i was thinking about etting the skid and i would much rather go and get another sk3. i do like the white keyboard though..but that is about all i like on this phone….lol..i guess i need a d-wade edition…lmao
I think trimming all the fat from the SK3 was a smart idea. I don’t want some CRAPPY camera or an MP3 player that I can’t even hook up to my car. Besides, having all those extra programs is probably what causes the 3 to freeze up so much. Getting rid of all that will make it run faster, and smoother.
BTW Mercedes and BlondeBiotch, Being in a ‘blonde mafia’ is not something I would be proud of…stupid hoes shouldn’t carry guns, and shouldn’t re-produce, but its probably to late, you both probably already had babies at the age of 13….OH, wait, THAT’S what the ‘blonde mafia’ is… a car pool group!
(oh, and just because your daddies rich, and you have a trust fund does NOT make YOU rich…it makes you a leach, I made my own money, you should try too)
do u noe if i can use it in mexico too?

SOMEONE PLZZZZ…! :s
hmm its not that bad i think its kinda cute if it had a camra i would buy it =) i like the colors better than my SK3 and every 1 is being mean cuz its cheeper some people cant aford a 300 doller phone i think its a good thing infact i might get 1 any way but i use my sidekick 3s camra alot hmm =/??? (all though i did read a blog about the “sidekick 4″ so im kinda sad that they arnt comeing out with that 1 yet owell) =p
ok yea my first comment was nice but i have 1 more thing to say all of you saying “o god i dont want the poor people to have sidekicks blah blah” ur jerks just cuz some 1 dosent have as much money as u dont dosent make u better and if u think it dose that makes u sad and fyi lots of non billion doller bitchs have sidekicks they just saved there money and worked for it so you know w.e and 100 dollers still isnt totaly cheep so get off ur high horse and stop being total snoby cunts kk thank u
i actually held one today, the guy at tmobile had one. there sick i think, the 3 feels like itst gonna break, and ive had two of them due to tech errors they freaked out
it fees so much more sturdy and yellow is just bad ass
im so jealous btk!
i can’t wiat for it to come out tomorrow
does anyone know about the plates are being sold only by tmobile and if they are comign in packs or singulars?
packs suck bc you never want all of it..but making a custom pack to sell is better!
i want one soo bad..but im still locked in a contract from oct2006..but BLAH who cares i want one…
and the person who said something about poor people having it…MAN get over your ignorant ass. who cares if you are poor or rich. if you wnat one get one if you don’t then don’t. stop drinking all that hateraide you ignorant bitch. gah!
(= i wanna make friends with every single person that has posted here you guys look like you have lives..
personally i want the phone. it has everything that i want in a phone. its afordable and with the sidekick unlimeted for 30 bucks a month you get unlimeted text pic email aim etc. its all good
do u noe if i can use it in mexico too?

You guys are ridiculous.
I just bought the iD last night and I’m getting it shipped to my house as we speak.
Currently they only have black, white, glow-in-the-dark, and gray changeable plates.
But they’re going to come out with brighter colors soon.
Just thought I would let you all know. =]
I think the sidekick iD is a great idea. The sidekick with its amazing unlimited plan is popular among the Deaf and HoH population and to be charged so much for the extra features that probably wont be used(mp3/bluetooth) was probably not too popular. Although im sure sales were still great I think the skiD, despite losing the sometimes convenient camera, will be a great alternative.
I will admit while the design isn’t my favorite I think that might be because it was rushed out once they realized the manufacturers realized they had some unecesarry stuff in the sk3.
Great concept and the price is definitly alot less scary than the sk3
