Guess what Tony Hawk uses to text his friends?
Thats right folks, Tony Hawk uses a Sidekick LX. We haven’t heard about Tony Hawk that much lately, but evidently he is important enough to have his own Sidekick, because coming on July 16th, the Tony Hawk Sidekick LX will be released. All you skater-texters rejoice, because this phone is made for you. We don’t have too many details other then it will be Tony Hawk branded, but we’re guessing the housing will be pretty durable to handle those messy spills while boarding. Right in time for the T-Mobile sponsored Boom Boom HuckJam!

No!!!!!!! Well, I guess it doesn’t matter anyway, as long as I have a new Sidekick for the Fall

Starting May 1, the LX will be $299 with a $50 mail in rebate, making it only $250. All I have to say is, it’s about time for a price adjustment.

SRC……
Um well everybody will be getting one then, which I guess is a good thing. I guess that’ll make the Limited Editon one $399 then.?

david washington: the aspen/gekko are not limited editions. it is the sk id predecessor. did you not read the article???
src: the lx is already $249 on the tmobile website. then again this happened may 1 and you posted that april 29.
i think i will wait to see what the sidekick lx predecessor looks like. i know one is comming out in december and thats what i am saving up my money for.

Capitalism at its finest. A company produces a product exactly identical function-wise in every way to the original (aside from the celebrity association) and people flock to it. Says this as he caresses the Lord of the Rings Special Edition set. My preciousssss

The only way I will be interested in another Sidekick is if the new version coming out in July 2008 will:
1: Correct the lousy speaker (LX is much less inferior to SK3 sound / playback)
2. All my downloads are transferrable (I was lied to when upgrading to SKLX. Authentic Official Local TMobile Store (more than 1 rep), told me otherwise. I had to buy most of them all over again after getting locked into this LX
3. MOST of all, if the new Sidkeick WILL play video from the web.
$. Otherwise, I think I am going back to AT&T “IPHONE”
