i got the sidekick 2008 just a few days ago, i had the sidekick 3 previusly, i must say hugeeee improvment, the screen is smaller but it is deff. worth it. much clearer picture, and it had video!!! the phone is much smaller and lighter then the sidekick 3, and you can change the skins!!! i dont really like the keyboard on the sidekick 2008, i like the plastic one on the 3(its more comfortable). but you cant always get what you want , but i suggest geting this phone if you love fast easy phones that are amazing at texting quick in and out of schhol =P
