Sidekick LX 2009 Sidekick Blade Phone Cellular

The Sidekick 2008 does Spanish. It has a 2 meg camera and (finally) it captures video. It ships with two shells, black and metallic green, and you can make your own custom Sidekick 2008 shells too. It’s relatively small (4.7″ x 2.3″ x 0.7″) and lighter than previous models (5.3 oz, a half ounce less than an LX). If you’re a Sidekick user, this may be worth the upgrade.
