Another one

At least we got the stats. Don't think I will be getting one, not 100% sure though. The camera is very disappointing. No video. On the other hand a very nice screen, the blue is pretty slick looking, and a few other upgrades.

so how much should one year contract cost?

[goodfellabk]

most likely 349 for 1yr, confirmed 299 for 2yr

i can't believe the screen is still 65 thousand colors. so now we have a bigger washed out screen.

[dynamo768]

no wifi@home?

[shady104]

65000 colors is pretty damn good. Its not the amount its the quality. The current screens just suck. I'm stuck idk if I want the blue lx or the slide. I gotta see the sizes in person 1st.

Won't be washed out. The resolution is very good on these.

If you check out t-mobile.com, you'll see a set of features with the "Coming Soon" LX... They're advertising the alarm clock function!

I'm not very interested though - I was hoping for at least WiFi on board.

No video, no wifi. Get a wing instead.

I thought the LX was a swivel screen and the moto one was slide.
Notice how it says LX - one of the features is that it slides.

are sidekick 3 users going to be able to trade in their sidekick 3's for a discounted price on the LX or is there some other way for current sidekick 3 users to upgrade at a discount?

lol everyone asked the same thing with the sk3's release. and answer was no. t-mobz really has no incentive to do this. theyd loose money and what would they do with a bunch of crapped sk3's?
