Only if you...
Get yourself a copy of Microsoft Outlook, or a copy of Microsoft Office that includes Outlook in it.
Purchase Intellisync for the Sidekick.
Regularly use Intellisync to synchronize your personal data on your Sidekick with your copy of Outlook, so you have things like your Address Book, Notes, and Calendar backed up on your computer.
Otherwise, don't even THINK about using a Sidekick. It's too risky.

I'm not sure, but since I have 2 friends that work for T-Mobile in corporate stores, I'll ask tomorrow. Hopefully I can have an answer for you pretty quickly.
You know, unless someone gives you a definitive answer before then.

YES!
Didn't even have to ask my friends on this one. It's right on T-Mobile's website. The Sidekick prepaid plan is still just $1 a day for UNLIMITED domestic e-mail, texting, IM & web browsing. The cost for phone calls is 15¢ per minute, although I would assume you could also purchase prepaid airtime like normal.
