They were doing two-way texting YEARS before the hearing world caught on.  The Sidekick enabled the Deaf community to communicate much more effectively than the old two way pagers.  The sidekick not only provides real EMAIL on the phone (no character limitations), it also provides Deaf people a way to have their TTY phone access on the go.  The other area that Deaf people are way ahead of the hearing world is video phones.  They all have them now and rarely use TTY anymore.  Video phones allows them to call each other directly and talk face to face....  Just a little Deaf education...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[toriesmom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 13th 2007 8:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[That swivel on the Sidekick seriously sucks.

Every cell phone provider and manufacturer have teamed up at on point or annother for exclusive contracts it seems.  I believe the Chocolate phone is Verizon only, Sidekick is T-mobile only, those are just off the top of my head but there are many, many more.  Nobody seems to care then, but as soon as apple releases a product on at&t only all hell breaks loose and people start talking class action lawsuits and how disappointed they are.  I just thought that was how the cell phone industry works, I don't see why it would be any different when apple makes a cell phone.  On a side note, $299 for a sidekick with only 128mb of memory?  For $100 more you can get an iPhone with 8 gigs, or as another poster said a backberry pearl.  I don't know who would want this for $299 with a 2 year contract.  I guess 15 year old girls maybe.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tanner]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2007 12:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[dude I don't even like apple that much, and even I understand that an iphone is on a whole different level of goodness compared to a sidekick. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[enzo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2007 2:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[Thats because people were looking for Apple to enter the market and start to change things around. Consumers are sick of having to choose their phone based on who they currently have a contract with or miss out on a great device because it's not available for their carrier.

(Yes, the AIM link in t-zones would let you do it for free, but WAP 2.0 handsets cannot access it anymore, so... anything less than 18-24 months old, really.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Elix]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2007 7:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[Tmobile kinda pissed me off when they decided the only way to get  updates is via paying for the Data plan.  Then ontop of that they decided to only allow phones to update when they push something out over the network, not have the phone check-in with the system when it first joins the network to see if it needs any updates.  So here I am running my Sidekick II with factory 2.0 OS because I could end up paying for the data plan for six months and still not get any firmware/OS updates. what a bunch of BullShit.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2007 9:31AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[OTAs are sent over the network via GPRS so yes, you'd need a data plan.  No other way to update the phone.  Also the phones DO send their version info to the Danger servers when they connect, if the OS on your phone is older than the current OS an OTA will be sent to you.  Once the OTA has been sent out it is always available for older models.  If you do have an older phone and aren't getting the OTA call customer care, they should be able to force an update to your phone, providing you have data enabled on your sim.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rave]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2007 2:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[someone should inform the sales people of this info because they dont know jack shit]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 27th 2007 12:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[what about europe? i read somewhere were they said that it will be internationally released.. will it come to europe? and the date?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kenjro]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2007 11:38AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[I had a sidekick of various models for 4 years.

I called to speak with someone about a situation my roommate was in the middle of with them and complained that i wasn't happy with how he was treated and if he was treated so rudely and left without any options, who's to say wouldn't be treated with the same disrespect (and we have both been members since 2002. ) The woman transfered me to someone who was supposed to "appease" me and make me feel better about staying with tmobile, but he just argued with me, and told me that my friend's situation had nothing to do with me.. and he didn't listen to my argument. it was absurd that he raised at me, talked down to me, and treated me like a idiot. Since that conversation(which lasted 45 minutes) i have been telling all of my friends to leave them. tmobile will turn their back on you(the customer) the minute you actually need their help.. and they just won't care how loyal you've been to them if it doesn't help their own interests. <br>That's why I'm checking out helio's stuff. They seem to be a little more edgy, and for the consumer.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[aus]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 27th 2007 10:18AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on T-Mobile announces Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/26/t-mobile-announces-sidekick-lx-and-sidekick-slide/</guid><description><![CDATA[i THiNK THE SliDE l00KS HEllA UGlY. `N THE SCREEN iS WAAAAAAAAAY 2 PHUCKiN SMAll...THE lX iS WAT i'M GETTiN.
