After anxiously waiting for it's arrival..I finally received my sidekick III. After playing with it for some long intensive hours..I realized..it's WHACK! It wasn't worth the money.
It has no ALARM CLOCK..NO CALCULATOR..NO VIDEO RECORDER!!! I use those on a daily basis...Also, you can't import MP3 to convert to ringtones. You must strictly order from their download catalogue because I spent hours trying to figure out how to access the memory card to transfer data..but the SDcard is strictly for transferring pictures to the camera and MP3's to play on the MP3 player BUT THAT'S IT! my damn T809 had way more options then this...You'd think something that cost 399.99 would have EVERYTHING! But it doesn't.
It's hella technical too but if you already have a kicker...you should be use to it..but newbies like me..damn..it was hella confusing. So if you are planning to get it on its release date of JULY 10, 2006, I highly recommend NOT to get it. Save your money for something better or wait for the price to go down. It's only a slight upgrade to the Sidekick II !
