Popular with the teenage demographic (sorry for those who aren't!), the "SideKick", as T-Mobiled coined it, is a great IM device with a gaming bent.
You won't be working on Microsoft documents on this device. Rather, you'll find yourself IM'ing your friends and family.
I still can't work the flip/rotate screen as I always get the device upside-down.
With a full QWERTY rubberized keyboard, it feels quite nice. Still, it's not as feature-rich as some other handhelds on the market.
One of the better features of this device is that it can browse/render real websites just as the other devices can. Funny thing is that this only has a VGA camera and NO expandable storage. You would think that kids would like to have higher quality pix they can IM to their friends.
The UI is great with this two-handed device, so if some of the software/app limitations are ok with you, this is the "hip" device to get.
It'll definitely make your kids think your "cool" :)
