T-Mobile rolls deep with designer Sidekicks for charity

by Chris Ziegler, posted Sep 25th 2007 at 3:16PM

T-Mobile teamed up a while back with a bunch of fashionistas to design elaborately redone Sidekick 3s to benefit Fashion Targets Breast Cancer, an organization raising money to benefit breast cancer causes worldwide to the tune of some $40 million since its inception in 1994. The results are in -- and while we can't comment on the usability or aesthetic goodness of what we're seeing, we've got to stay focused on the fact that it's all going to a very worthy group. Some of the names on the list of participating designers are big enough to drive prices way up on the auctions, we'd imagine, which all end today. So go place that massively generous bid of yours, and if anyone can figure out what the heck is going on with the Duckie Brown one, do let us know!

Gee, thanks, Justin Ginta for Subversive. That's exactly what we needed. A device which was originally designed to be clutched by both hands, now covered with tiny little sharp pointy things that make it too uncomfortable to hold for any length of time. What charity is this for? The Association For The Advancement Of People With Multiple Puncture Wounds On Their Hands? The AFTAOPWMPWOTH?
