Guy Creates Wooden Sidekick 3 For Girlfriend
Handmade Christmas gifts are the best, and this hand-carved wooden Sidekick 3 will definitely make this guy's girlfriend happy. Happy, that is, until she reads his forum post on Something Awful that says he didn't make the thing slide because "she's not THAT special." Oh you! More » -

Evolution of the Sidekick Flip From the 3, iD, LX to the Slide
As part of the Slide review process, Benny G and I just made this super-quick video of all four recent models: Sidekick 3, Sidekick iD, Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide. What will you notice? Changes in flip action, changes in the flip sound effects, and remarkable difference in screen brightness and clarity. But one question, Motorola: if you're so cool building the Sidekick Slide, how come you didn't put a slide-open sound effect? I'll be sure to follow up on that mystery. [T-Mobile Sidekick] -

Sidekick LX Unboxing Gallery and Sidekick Sizemodo
The FedEx man just made us happy by dropping off a Sidekick LX, which will be available to T-Mobile customers tomorrow, and will be "widely available" on October 24th at T-Mobile stores and at t-mobile.com. Here's a look at its classy exterior, definitely more of a grown-ups Sidekick than any we've seen before. Notice the WQVGA screen with "high-definition" LCD technology, as well as the "mood lights" on the ends of the phone. Sizemodo gallery after the jump.

Sidekick 3 Update Launching Now, Adds myFaves
If there are two things in common with Sidekick 3 owners is that they're all a bunch of chatty Kathies and they love hanging out with teenagers. T-Mobile's upcoming Over-the-Air (OTA) update can help them with the first, but not with the second. More » -

D-Wade Sidekick 3 Release Announced
On the T-Mobile wiki, they dropped some info pre-press release time, you know, to the little people.In a few hours, T-Mobile will officially announce the latest addition to the Sidekick line up. We wanted you to be the first to have the details...The T-Mobile Sidekick 3, D-Wade Edition, will be available at select T-Mobile retail locations, select dealers, and online at www.t-mobile.com beginning Feb. 21.
We (meaning I) honestly didn't realize the D-Wade Sidekick 3 wasn't official yet, especially since our own Travis Hudson had an interview with the man himself on his newly branded gear. (We thought it was weird when Travis asked Wade to sign his chest, but whatev). They also announced some promotions that will occur during the 2007 All Star Game on the Vegas strip, including one of the world's largest wallscapes at Mandalay Bay, covering 56,250 sq ft with D-Wade holding his D-Wade. We don't care because we're not allowed anywhere in Vegas not called the Imperial Palace. Still no word on pricing. More » -

Gaudy Limited-Edition D-Wade Sidekick 3
If you're a fan of NBA sensation Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat, you might be interested in D-Wade's limited-edition Sidekick 3 that he designed himself. He's been an avid user of the Sidekick since 2004, and designed this Sidekick 3 to look like the interior of a luxo-sport automobile, further personalizing it with his own number 3 showing up on the 3G smartphone in glittering gold.

Monaco Sidekick 3 Dock: A Little Bit Convenient, A Little Bit Lame
The Monaco Sidekick 3 cradle is convenient because it will charge your SK3 and an extra battery without fumbling with cables, but it is also a little lame because that is all the Monaco dock really does. Sure it includes a USB port to transfer files to your PC, but most syncing with the SK3 is done wireless via T-Mobile's website so the USB cable isn't as useful as thought. The HipTop3 folks like the dock because it holds the SK3 vertically, therefore eliminating the horrible task for having to pick up your phone to see the IM, SMS or call. At least it is a cheap: $20.

How Porno Stars Clean Their Sidekick 3 (Hint: They Use Their Bodies)
Our video guy Rich is a man about town and found himself in some sort of adult video release fiesta last night. (It was for the Vivid release of "Chemistry" for your later Googling.) Why does Gizmodo care? Here, we get to see how real life adult film star Dana DeArmond cleans her Sidekick 3 and a friend's Samsung Trace. Yeah, she uses her breasts. There's no nudity or anything, but your wife still might not appreciate it. We're all pigs here so it doesn't even matter in the least. -

Black T-Mobile Sidekick 3, Wha?
This little gem may be the unicorn for Sidekick fans out there. Apparently there were 500 of these made during the Sidekick 3 launch back in the summer. Now you have the opportunity to own this mysterious unicorn because one of the said 500 units has appeared on eBay. The black SK3 is unlocked, in sexy black and the seller loves the capslock. It currently has zero bids with the starting price at $325. The whole unlocked thing is still sounding a little fishy. Maybe it's just a crappy paint job? Check out all of our SK3 coverage here.

A Little Dom Perignon, Some Diamonds, and a Sidekick 3
Well, it had to happen. The eBay run-up on the Sidekick 3 is now reaching ridonkulous proportions, with some folks paying $4,050 for a hunk of electronics. Heck, I'll bet Sharp, the SK3's manufacturer, paid that much for their R&D—"What should we do?" "Well, let's stick a trackball on there! And make it smaller!" "Score!"

Paris Hilton's Crystal-Studded Sidekick 3
As the saying goes, the rich get richer, and T-Mobile is more than happy to accommodate America's best and brightest with the launch of their highly anticipated Sidekick 3. Paris Hilton, the very talented, earned-everything-she's-ever-received-in-her-life socialite even has a special, Swarovski Crystal-encrusted verion of T-Mobile's wunderphone. Hilton's Sidekick 3 has a bunch of different stones on it that, apparently, make people feel important. Crystal, light rose and smoked topaz are but some of the shiny rocks on the Sidekick 3. Whether or not Hilton ever uttered the phrase, "I love my Sidekick! It's HOT," might well impact my opinions of humanity. More » -
