nice big, clear, clean screen.
Great keyboard.
Fast data speeds.

Great calender system.
Download and change themes (skthemes.com for examples).

Here you go, just for you!

The phone is great for fast messaging. Also the speakerphone is great when using the sidekick as a phone.

i text da most so it'll be a good phone fa me..

Only Phone calls would work if you used it in canada (unlocked) There is different settings and different sim cards for the Sidekick II.

Quick question about it though... if I get an unlocked one and use it in Canada... can I use the internet and AIM/MSN on it, or will the internet not work?

Aww! You were kiddin'? haha.

Kidding about the honeys part.... It doesn't really work.... for me anyway

My experience is, you don't think you'll need any of the features, but once you have them, you use them constantly. I can't tell you how many times the Sidekick has saved me in school... ie: doing an assignment last minute and emailing it to the prof... PLUS IT GETS YOU THE HONEYS

lol I use my sk2 for AIM too and textin', I don't even use the notes/calendars =\ maybe because I'm lazy.. I just like how it looks and how cool it flips LOL. well I better start usin the other stuff to make the sk2 worth it!

Yeah, I was curious too. I want a SKIII and not alot of my friends/family text alot, and none of my friends have AIM (no one in Canada uses AIM). So, now I don't really see a point in getting one anymore other then the cool factor.

what are sidekicks goodfor other than instant messaging people ? alot of peopel i know are buying them but they don't seem to do anything but talk on AIM with them .
