Where's the lock..?

I heard the SK4 will be out in time for 7 7 7



Posted by: georget99

My son's girlfriend's uncle's brother has a friend who knows someone who knows the president of Danger who told them it would have a 500 Gb hard drive, Bluetooth, Orangetooth, Purpletooth, Wi-Fi, supports printer and mouse. Can project 3x4 foot image on wall, inflatable full size keyboard, can boot Windows, Linux, or Mac OS. USB port allows complete access to file system including MP3 ringtone folder. Has VOIP client, supports dual SIMS and has backup AMPS, CDMA, iDEN, and FRS modes.

I heard it will have hypno-rims

This is a waist of server space. The SK3 isn't even out, yet and yall thinking about the Sk4?

Okay, I am back. I would like the SK4 to have:
-UMTS/HSDPA
-EDGE support, where UMTS is not available
-2MP camera
-QQVGA screen
-Bluetooth 2.0
-UMA
-Video player (Capture and playback)
-MP3 player (better than the one on the SK3)
-Be priced at $199 for a 2 year contract or $250 on a 1 year contract

*all of these features, while still paying $19.99 as an add-on. (I know they will raise it, once they get UMTS/HSDPA

it will also have all the tools you need to start your own meth lab.

I agree with terry on the QVGA. To me that's the biggest thing missing from the Sidekick 3. Like I've said in other threads, increasing the screen from 240 x 160 to QVGA (320 x 240) gives you twice as many pixels. 240 x 160 is 38400 pixels and QVGA gives you 76800 pixels. That's a huge difference when you're trying to look at a web page.

It also better be a lot slimmer. People seem to want thin phones. Just look at how well the Motorola Razr and Samsung A900 have been selling. Also the Motorola Q was much anticipated because it was so thin.

Well I posted it only a couple of days ago and I've really only been participating in Sidekick 3 discussions the past week. It's really not that hard to remember especially when you're annoyed that the Sidekick 3 will have such a low resolution screen for a data centric device.

Hiptop 4 will have cruise control, ABS, and power windows.

I heard it from a Fido rep.



Posted by: glitchDESIGNS



I work at T-Mobile; I sweep floors for them at their HQ. I managed to snap this quick picture of the prototype for the HipTop/Sidekick4, also known as the Sidekick Quad. They let me try it out so I took a quick picture using my friend's Sidekick II (notice the blue fades on the corners??) and so here you go, hofo. Enjoy.

P.S. I blurred my sn out for obvious reason. I don't want to have to go back to sweeping floors for Cingular. =[.

Oh yeah, all the above mentioned features are true. They left out the part where this baby can microwave food.

Posted by: Carlan600i

my best freinds dad works for the military and he used a cloaking device to sneak into dangers secret lab (where there designing the sk4) and also noticed it has a lighter on it. you can change the color of the flame. (blue red orange green purple and bright white). its also a projector.

The SideKick 4 will look nothing like the sidekicks you guys know and love.

Of course without Windows... If it had Windows on it, that screen would be plenty blue.

Posted by: Yunghollywood

Well I Have 3 of Em Already And I Can Tell You From Personal Experience Its Great;



Features:
2 Solar Panels Top N Bottem
Floatation Device
3 Way Radio
Meat Grinder
3 Glow Sticks
Za8 Player
One Touch World Domination Key
25 Wat Subs
And 26'' Rims (With Guess Appearences By Tupac)



(Sorry Only Pix Available lmao)



Posted by: iPhoneKiller

Oh, whew. I'm definatly glad they decided to keep the rims and the subs on there! For a second I thought they were going to remove them. And how's the battery life with those solar panels? A week?



Posted by: Yunghollywood

Battery Life On This Thing Is Great At Goes Three Years Before Time For Another Charge, And Reception Forget It Impossible To Gauge, And If You Dont Get Signal With Yours For An Additional 300 Dollars You Can Get A Extra Strength Antenna

Pix



Posted by: iPhoneKiller

Dang that must get some awsome reception! But I'm not sure the solar panels would be quite enough for such an antenna. So the extended battery would be a good choice for 100 extra bucks!!!




Posted by: nyitalian718v2

people poeple its simple as this...

the sk, will be sold as the 1st and only ever produced wish phone..

you will get a box. when u open it there will be a blank looking chuck of nano bots. that once activated read your mind, and automaticly build your dream phone, so if u dream of the staypuff marshmellow man, gues what thats what the sk4 will look like..

if u blank on your thoughts for a sek, it will desapere

if u think about becoming one with your phone you and the sk4 will merge into 1 being. your ear will become a usb wire to plug into the comp. [ think about the cartoon reboot - glitch bob]

so it will have all the features you dream of.



Posted by: iPhoneKiller

.......but, but what if you change your mind or want to add features? this could be bad as i have a tendency to have blank thoughts almost always. = ) *forgets what we're talking about..*

The SK4 will be made by Motorola (no joke). That is all I know.



Posted by: chellabella

It should have the option of adding a Bluetooth mouse

Posted by: Sikskillz84

if theirs a sidekick 4 i want them to put something on that thats not avaiable on any other phone..i feel like the sidekick 3 is late on technology..i mean its still a great phone but if they had something special on there that no other phone had that would be cool



Posted by: Razgriz1

I want the sk4 UMD compatible x] woooo lol



Posted by: ÂrçHäñG3|

UMD's are pointless. They don't sell and BestBuy and all the other major retailers have pulled UMD movies from the shelves. Once Sony gives up on the PSP, they'll be gond too and along with it, UMD's completely.

Actually, Motorola is really good at building solid, good looking cell phones (i.e. RAZR, RIZR, V635, SLVR), they just have bad UI's and since, being a Sidekick, it would have the Danger UI, then I see no issue with Motorola making it, if indeed they do. Actually, Motorola is known for having awesome screens in their phones (i.e. ROKR E2) so the screen might be improved as well.



Posted by: verity38

i heard its going to have a hemi



Posted by: EChid

I heard that too, but can you imagine the gas bill each month



Posted by: verity38

insane totally insane



Posted by: SideKicked

oh god..im not even goin thru this thread



Posted by: iPhoneKiller

why lol its quite amusing



Posted by: hypnohighroller

i think that the sidekick 4 will at least have a toothbrush, a laser pointer, and it better damn well have alien technology sent from mars, a cloning device, and a knife, jsut in case.... lol



Posted by: h1t

is anyone selling one? i want to be first to have it.



Posted by: hypnohighroller

actually me and my nonprofit organization from nigeria are, we are a international cellphone seller, we sell at wholesale prices, and we offer international warranties... i will be willing to send you one right away for only 80 dollars through money order.. lets keep in touch



Posted by: Prom1

Has anyone considered getting serious a bit with this thread? If most SK3 users here post what they want in a SK4 and there IS enough of you I'm sure Danger Inc may get wind of it and take a quick look.

> I'm betting that WiFi for UMA support (Voice Calls) for Tmobile @Home service shows up. I'm sure though that Danger Inc will kill internet surfing over WiFi though as it'll bleed money out of theirs & TMobile's coffers.



Posted by: amanda4994

i doubt that the sidekick 4 is coming out in january 07 it just came out this summer ... they usually come out every 2 years if you ahvnt noticed the pattern

Well this thread STILL can be fun just, be realistic with your posts.

ie I want the SK4 to pleasure me everynight isnt realistic but doing video calls or video chat - HINT HINT new IDEA that hasnt been implemented yet in ANY platform (I patented this hehe) - would do a fine substitute.

There wouldn't be any real reason to roll out UMA-compaible sk3's quite yet.. The @Home service hasn' been officially launched yet. I'd say get ready for more UMA devices when they release @Home for more regions.

Only for T-Mobile Hotspots. Like Starbucks,etc.



Posted by: TheGSMSpot.com

where did u hear about this oneee ? lol



Posted by: Third_Shadow

I want the Side Kick 4 to have...

The classic SK3 slider screen, but little bit larger and much more clear screen as a razr, but sponsored by TrueBrite (or at least some company that knows laptops and cellphones for bright and crystal clear LCD/Plasmas and other etc...). I sure do NOT want to be looking at PIXLES ever again... HiDef is out and hot on the market... They sure need to catch UP with the times.

Crystal screen, scratch resistant like a Vertu or a Movado watch face.


The casing be made of something stronger than plastic, maybe stainless steel, liquidmetal, titanium or a light weight alloy...

Keep the vCard system which is similar to a Mac. Search system part is the most important.


Love the Trillian based Messaging system w/ Yahoo, AIM, MSN at the same time. But needs to add the "NOTES:" part which Trillian/AIM stores. (I write the person's real name in the notes, cause I can never remember who it is!)


Keep the POP mail system.

A visual stimulating system like the PSP is a good example... or if anyone has seen Lain: Serial Experiments (Japanese Anime Movie Series)... The "Navi" Computer System... Glows and cool icons and screen changes.


Absolutely no Microsoft Windows based platform!!! That would be discusting... Stay edgy with a an adapted platform or a completely new one which is cool and liquid screen changes between menues like I said before PSP and Lain...

Don't forget the Internet Favorites Folder!

A decent mp3 player... possibly similar to Sonique based with visuals!

Outragiously large memory card! For lots of Pictures and Video... Have a camera 2.0 MegaPixals or higher. 10 Minute Videos like the Nokia N Series...

An LED Light Camera Flash, also can turn on as a flash light when needed the dark... like the Samsung E715 phone had.

I have no ideal what the deal is with T-Mobile, but Downloading ringtones and java games should just be FREE, and downloadable and computer to phone transfer...

As well as transfer mp3 to phone and make into ringtones, and edit program come with like the Motorola Sliver.

That is what I added and tweeked options that should be on the Side Kick 4!!!

Oh yea, pick up Hot Spots, like Starbucks, seamlessly... Free, no 30 bucks a month for SK users, just uses their HotSpots as a boost.


You know how back-then you could connect your phone to your laptop and you have internet... You should be able to do that with the sidekick... Since you have unlimited internet access... You can connect to your laptop and have internet where ever you go... Sometimes I'm stuck at a starbucks or a friend's house and can't steal internet anywhere!

Should be an international phone, for international people!!! And not cost extra! Similar to Cingular's International usage! If it has a Air Plane Mode... I think it should be compatable in Europe (Ex. France), Canada, South America, and Asia!!!

Posted by: DizChiNoRicHie

^ wow thats asking for alot... i jus want a customizable sidekick with pc/sidekick connection, better internet, bluetooth, better camera, better mp3 player, a video player, larger memory, and a handful of other stuff i cant remember right now... lol



Posted by: Third_Shadow

^ LOL yea, 4rd generation better be kick a**, because the screen didn't change pixles did not change on the 3rd generation, which pissed me off!

Oh yea. Pc/Sidekick connection is good, it's faster to update an adress book using a pc keyboard.

The projector screen would be so fun to use, especial showing groups of people what someone's aim conversation on a wall for everyone to see. Teehee.

I hope I can play this game www.realmsofdispair.com on the sk4, cause I use to play along time ago and it would be fun to get back on it... java or whatever mirc looking program I have of the game...

Also I hope someone from the SK4 / Danger operations or engineering read this...

Also it would be interesting for when using aim/yahoo/etc... You would move your ball left and right to move between tabs, or that option to use it. The whole menu and press a number is to much hassle for me.

Now that I think about it, I totally dislike plastic buttons... Razr are so much better with titanium buttons, and the ball sould be a steel berring. (cold to the touch.)



Posted by: Third_Shadow

Oh yea!!! Like the new Nokia N95 has GPS Communication (Navigation) System. In the SK4... as this clip on YouTube shows...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e73xBxWi7K4

And speaks to you in a British accent like a 007 James Bond movie... or a Jaguar GPS Navigation...

Orrr... I could just use google maps...

But the phone better operate super fast. I can not stand how slow my Razar system is... and they never update... For example, the peble... same... silver.. same... I haven't had the chance to look at the Miror or whatever smaller razr, but I'm sure it's slow as hell. and web browsing is too.

ALSO A MAJOR THING THAT WOULD BE KICK AA!!!

I recently saw a in the Nokia Booth at the mall it was just a portable thing 300 dollars uses Linix and only used to surf the net and uses wireless connection...

WiFi, and whatever EDGE is... It would be so awesome if it picked up FREE Wireless Internet as laptops do... As well as PSP picks them up by WEP or I would just use my wireless at home / coffee shops. SO when I can still use the SideKick even when I stop using T-Mobile Service which would be useful for PrePaid People and I would not have to carry a bulky laptop with it's carrying case and wires.... Uhg!

I definatly know I will be using the SK for Address Book purposes for as long as I can... and when traviling have business numbers and physical address handy... information junk you don't nessarily need on a cell phone...

Reason is, if I go to France, I want internet I can search www.altavista.com translator and/or www.wordreference.com As well as have all the address I need to go. And GPS point A to B map... / www.googlemaps.com / http://maps.yahoo.com

Posted by: bethinthehouse

post it on here as soon as it comes out i'v jst got the sidekick 3 but i would like to see how they have made improvements and buy it if its better



Posted by: albezzy

i think that the sidekick 4 should include
-3mp camara
-video recorder
-email
-picture message
-text message
-mp3 and video player
-touchscreen like the iphone
-faster internet
-better reception
-bluetooth 2.5 or higher
-UMTS/HSDPA
-sleek skiny like a razr


should be priced at $400 or more for 2 year service $300 and 4 prepaid $450

thats what i think



Posted by: ARHYTHMATIK

Yeah- I say all those things, minus the touch screen. I hate touch screens. They're never that responsive. But also I would add an RSS reader, some type of eBook reader, google maps or GPS, and WIFI! Now that would be the greatest device ever.



Posted by: l0uisz

I hope it doesn't come out for a LONG LONG time.

So they can have time to think things through run better tests.

Add more stuff the consumers WANT.

And a reasonable price to go with it.



Posted by: Gutterpunk

Yeah I want the SK4 to make my bed and blow me once in a while.

All that for less than 200$!!!!!



Posted by: stinkingshoe

I thought the features of the new iphone from apple looked intriguing... we won't have it here in Canada for a while... anybody out there got one?

200?? That a bit unreasonable.

I think this device itself is worth 300 +

And if the 4th one is worth it, then it should be the same price as the sk3.

Well Ladies and Gentleman I just spoke to a T-mobile rep on saturday afternoon about a new sidekick 4. She said that she heard a few things about the new sidekick. First of all it will be like a step down from the sidekick3 so that it will be more affordable for more people to buy. She also said it should be out very soon. This made me happy because I tried out the sidekick3 last week and I was very disappointed by the camera and i had no use for a device with an MP3 player (i have an Ipod) and a whack *** camera. I also didn't like the fact that you can't change the background and that you are stuck with the little cartoon people in the background. I did love the access to the internet, email, text messaging was great and the AIM, MSN, yahoo instant messenger feature. Other than those i didn't get to impressed by it. The ringtones were nice especially since the phone will vibrate along with the ringtone on the right setting and I liked the navigation buttons. I am glad i took back the sidekick 3 because I think there needs to be major improvements on it before it will be just right. You should be able to put a picture on the background instead of being stuck with cartoon characters on the phone lol anyways there you go!



Posted by: EscapadeJ

DAYUM THAT Quad is so tight lol i can't wait i am so glad i took my sidekick 3 back thank you Jesus!! lol

I dout the sk4 coming out soon and I hope it really doesn't come out soon.

That way they can work it for longer.



Posted by: Box215

i agree, i doubt the sidekick 4 is coming out anytime soon and I dont see how it can be a downgrade from the sk3 cause the sk3 isnt really all that amazing spec wise (going back to VGA camera form 1.3 mp? yeah right, they really NEED to raise the screen resolution)



Posted by: EscapadeJ

yea well i spoke to the representative and that is what she told me now does anyone here work at T-mobile? No then why don't we just wait and see...The sidekick 3 is nothing great...the only thing i miss about it is is the ease of texting and aim messenging to me that isn't that much to offer considering you can get the same thing on a regular cell phone

Thank you for that post donniesd...that is all i was trying to tell people but really i am done with this forum because i don't have that sk3 anymore and that is the only reason i joined it. So adios happy sidekick shopping everyone...by the way i love the idea of a watered down but comprable sidekick...I have no need for an mp3 player or a camera on my sidekick...An alarm clock that comes with it and easy web access (aim messenger and text messenging) is good enough for me. I am going to buy a digital camera soon so why would i need a sucky sidekick camera that can't take pictures worth a damn. I am excited for the watered down version of the sk3

I am going to buy a digital camera soon so why would i need a sucky sidekick camera that can't take pictures worth a damn. I am excited for the watered down version of the sk3


Well Said. But they should be using this time to make it better. Removing useless features that suck is a start, But not a fix.

I think an OTA wireless update for bacon and eggs in the morning would be nice.

I think screen resolution should definitely be one of the upmost importance, as well as battery life. No point of having it do everything when your battery life lasts 4 hours.

I tried the Ocean, btw, its not what its cracked up to be. I've returned it and went back to my SK II (yeah lame huh, but its still working better than the Ocean).

GPS like Helio's buddy beacon would be nice.
Long battery life even with bluetooth on
Better Screen
and a camera that is worth a damn

someone that said solar panels to recharge the phone in sunlight, not a bad idea lol, like those 80's calculators. Awesome.

We'll see, sidekick 4 will probably find some intuitive ideas from iphone

After seeing world renowned psychic sylvia brown live, i asked her to tell me about the sidekick 4. after rolling her eyes to the back of her head and majorly rubbing her fingers against her temples she told me this... The sidekick 4 will be made with an exclusive partnership with the company homemedics. it will feature a five speed built in massager, an alarm clock with rainforest sounds to help you go to sleep, and a wax free scented candle with 6 secret scents. She said it is going to be the product of the year and that people will be rioting in the streets. This will be sold only at bed bath and beyond and hits stores... get this... june 1!

i hear its going to be the last sidekick ever made and it is going to have retractable wings that come out whenever you need to be in a hurry i also hear that it can stop time and turn into whatever you want. But thats only what the guys at gizmodo told me i wonder what crunchgear had to say? Also my third cousin twice removed ex girlfriends best friend's hairstylists knows sombody and their cousin worked in the watergate scandal and he hacked into the Headquarters and saw a girl holdin a breifcase that said TOP SECRET SIDEKICK 4 but he isn't superman so he couldn't see what it said. So he hired superman... well a superman impersonator which he found right in front of the Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles so he is pretty good. but he couldn't tell what it said so i was like bummer but my cousin guessed that it could:

Park itself
clone you
be a maid
and steal someones identity- you should get a citi bank card.
walk your children
and go on vaction...for you!



sounds siiiiiiiiiiick to me

Here you go, guys, straight from "inside sources", your first look at the Sidekick 4!

For this one, Danger wants to completely blow the Sidekick 3 out of the water! They want to make a device so irresistible, that you'll HAVE to have it, no matter what!

To that end, they've enlisted some outside help... from the great publishing corporations of Ursa Minor! This is what they've come up with!

CLICK HERE FOR VERY LARGE IMAGE!

Besides the usual SK functions, it will give you all the info you need to enable you to see the universe on a mere 30 Altarian Dollars a day!

But wait, there's more! Pre-Order one NOW, and you'll get a free bonus: Your very own Babel Fish!

I love my CrackBerry, but this one just might manage to lure me away!
