It's been a while since we first heard rumors about a the Sidekick 4, but TmoNews has a scoop on two devices headed to retail in July that could fit the bill. The first is code named "SK Gekko" and will be released on July 27; the second is the "Sidekick Aspen" on July 30. No details other than the code names, so we're left in the dark as to what they look like, who they're made by and if Microsoft has had any influence in development. [TmoNews]

Finally a little bit of updating. This thing is becoming far more practical than its text-only predecessors.
Rock'em Sock'em Ballmer!
His right fist looks like it's going to deck him just because it thinks that beating him may take the death look away.
Zune Phone?
@Evangelion:
/shudder
wouldn't the Sidekick LX be the fourth Sidekick, making this upcoming one the Sidekick 5?
I doubt they hold up with the competition of the phones that verizon and att have out!
these do sound like MS code names, don't they??
@tr: That's what I was thinking. =/
TmoNews.com (the domain) was bought very recently.. I am curious to know how old those kids really are.
Regardless, there hasnt been to many rumors about sidekicks that didnt have some truth to them.
Remember that Excel SpreadSheet timeline with the Sidekick RAZR? Turned out to be the slide...
@stacky...
Stacky, as one of the owners of tmonews.com I can assure you myself and my partners slave over tips and only post them if we have enough confirmation to warrant it, just as this site does.
Not a kid either there bud...
