Before, life was simple: there was the Sidekick LX, unquestionably the most desirable Sidekick on the market -- an easy decision for folks looking to get into the whole Danger craze or upgrade that janky, old Sidekick 3. Suddenly, though, things have taken a complicated turn now that the Sidekick Slide is available, too. The Motorola-sourced Slide has now hit T-Mobile's website and store locations for $199 alongside the recently launched LX from Sharp, and while the $299 LX still takes the spec crown (thanks largely to a much larger, crisper widescreen display), the Slide's more compact -- and after having played with both, we're kinda down with the Slide's looks and its blasphemous slide mechanism, too. A tough decision, we know, so why don't you head down to your local joint and play with 'em both for yourself?
i've decided i need this phone.
Yea LX looks better. Looks like Danger/Sharp make better looking phones than Danger/Motorola. LOL. Anyway, I'll stick with the never-ending capabilities of my Windows Mobile phone :).

a friend of mine is picking up one of these this weekend, I'm eager to check it out and play around with it.
Looks very nice.. please push out more colors to attract more customers!
personally I don't think either one is worth it. I am still waiting for the Kaiser or a 3G enabled Shadow with a Querty Keyboard. Otherwise I would say that the Helio Ocean is the best phone on the market right now.
