In a Q&A with the Sidekick maker Danger's CEO, Financial Times asks him about what he's got in his pocket. Surprisingly, Hank Nothaft tells.
A prototype of the next Sidekick (mobile-cum-internet device). It's thinner and less wide but has a bigger keyboard. Now I no longer keep it on a belt, I'm always losing it. I was known as the "absent-minded professor" as a student.
Bigger keyboard, thinner and less wide? Sounds like a winner to us. If you're really a Sidekick fanboy, head over to FT for the rest of the interview. There isn't a whole lot of pertinent Sidekick detail, but you can get some insight into their leader. [FT - Thanks tipster!]
Update: Is this the Sidekick 4, code-named Gekko or Aspen? TmoNews has more details.

"(mobile-cum-internet device)"
I don't believe anyone can object to it when it's mobile.
no pics....no thanks...!!!
Such a tease you are Giz
phew.. it's phone, not a Chuck Norris movie sequel. I'm relieved.
bigger keyboard, but less wide?
hmm sounds interesting
i hope they change the camera this time too, and maybe make it less kiddie?
I know what he meant, but am I the only one who thinks "Thinner and less wide" sounds really redundant?
@rodsky: Just the camera is Kiddie?
I hope this means a Microsoft branded Windows Mobile 7 version will be out soon after... or maybe this is the Microsoft branded version (If you don't know what I'm talking about, MS acquired Danger a little while ago)
If it comes with Sacha's contact info I'm in!
