Ok, I got caught up in the hype about the upcoming Sk3, and now that I have it, I don't really like it. How do I reset it, so that the passwords, screen names, and etc. are erased so that when I take it back to the store, my info won't be in there?

when you swivel the dislplay open on the right hand side of the metal part there is a little hole. Stick a paperclip in that hole and that should do it

The OS. I like the Sk3 design though.

Why are people saying that the web broswer is super fast, like cable? I tried it and it was alittle faster than dial up. I am in NYC, so reception is no problem.

Who said it was super fast, "like cable?" I think everyone just said that it's fast for a phone.. EDGE is faster than dial-up (not cable fast, the highest it can reach is about 200 kbit/s). But it's a significant increase from GPRS which was below dial-up.
So basically, browsing on the sidekick 3 is bearable due to its EDGE capability. GPRS is just UN-bearable.

The little hole is for a soft reset only.
For IM's remove your username and pass, then uncheck "save pasword", close.

Logical deconstruction is my business.

yeah, i want to hard reset as well...cuz im using my old sidekick 2 sim in the sidekick 3, i get full bars, but no G...
Srsly wtf is a bag phone?
Just take the SIM card out. I took my SIM card out and then turned the phone on and it was back to the factory settings.
Phone Collector
see the problem that i am having, is that i bought a sd 3 from eBay, and when i got it i never got G...and that was probably cuz i couldnt sign in cuz the sign in username was grayed out and only password was being asked to put in...how can i get rid of that?

Just like Jeff said "when you swivel the dislplay open on the right hand side of the metal part there is a little hole. Stick a paperclip in that hole and that should do it". Hold it there for like 1 minute. Make sure the SIM card isn't in the phone.

I posted a bit in another thread, but to reiterate:
On the Danger side of the world the device is linked to a user account. This must be dissassociated by them to clear the device for a new user account. Just clearing the device on your side is not enough.

ooo alright, how would i come about doing this?
