Bargain PDA
Danger Hiptop 2 Review

Excerpt: "The Sidekick 2 is a fun converged device with a lot to like. It's easy to use, has a great keyboard, the form factor is innovative and can keep you connected in various ways to your friends and family. It is not a good replacement for a PDA, unless all you demand of a PDA is the most basic of applications. At the price of $199.99 this device is actually a bargain for what you get."

Chicago Tribune
Still kickin' it

T-Mobile Sidekick II

Rating: 8 out of 10
Excerpt: "Boasting a slimmer screen and a built-in camera, the second version of the T-Mobile Sidekick is more of a refinement than a revamp of its predecessor. This bulky but eye-pleasing smart phone is an e-mailer's and messenger's dream, and users of the older model will welcome the Sidekick II's thinner form factor and the addition of a speakerphone. But the new device is still without some higher-end features, and it won't access corporate e-mail."

T-Mobile Sidekick II

Excerpt: "The first Sidekick was a bit awkward and gangly, but the SK2 has matured into a smooth operator that just happens to be a bit bigger than his classmates. It’s really not fair to just judge the SK2 as a phone, when it does and has so much more than your average phone. It’s really more of a laptop in your pocket."

Excerpt: "Otherwise, though, this is one sidekick with looks, brain and personality. It's a delight to be around: responsive, respectful and very entertaining. And who wouldn't want a relationship like that?"

T-Mobile Sidekick II

Rating: 3.5 out of 5
Excerpt: "Think of the Sidekick II as a Treo (or Blackberry) Junior. For the college kid, young adult, or young-at-heart who want to get personal e-mail anytime, anywhere, it's a snazzy and fun choice."
