The T-Mobile Sidekick LX Tony Hawk Edition gets official, with Tony's name emblazed across the Sharp-ade Sidekick device. It's pretty much the same as the standard Sidekick LX, except this one has video recording and "play and share," among other small upgrades.

Sidekick LX Getting Video Recording and Playback, Maybe YouTube Action

Here's a snagged screen pointing to video recording and playback coming to the Sidekick LX in a future update. Nothing definitive on which codecs will be supported, but possibly H.264, which YouTube encodes videos in for Apple, meaning you might be able to watch YouTube videos. Or it could be a different one, and there's no word on whether there'll be a dedicated YouTube app. Regardless, video capabilities of some kind seem to be in the pipe. [Hiptop3]

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 LX's Manual Uploaded to Support Pages

When will T-Mobile put us out of our misery and launch that Sidekick LX we are lusting after? Not too long now, my precious. The manual for the device has been uploaded to T-Mobile's support website. Noteworthy features include the LX's new broader range of media file compatibility, including support for MP3, WMA, AAC, MIDI, AIFF and WAV files. Thanks to the earlier UI walkthrough, there doesn't seem much more that can be learnt from the manual, but by all means share any nuggets you find. Hit up the link to get your bookworm skills flexing. [T-Mobile via Boy Genius Reports]

Sidekick LX and Sidekick Slide Go Official

Sidekick LX Gets Release Date and More Grainy Shots

Following up on the previous grainy shots of the Sidekick LX, Hiptop 3 has more shots plus a release date. The date is supposedly October 24, which is far enough away from the holidays to make for a nice present. The LX looks a bit thinner/wider than the ZANTE, also known as the Sidekick Slide (we think). The sound you hear is 5 million teenagers smashing open their piggy banks in preparation for the 24th of October. Not so fast kids, this is still unconfirmed. [HipTop3]

Sidekick LX Appears In The Wild

Remember the non-sliding Sidekick LX "Shuriken" we mentioned had made it through the FCC obstacle course? The Boy Genius got his hands on pictures of the thing, though alas no additional details for T-Mobile's upcoming Sharp-built EDGE Danger device. [Boy Genius Report]

T-Mobile's already rolled out Sidekick Limited Editions for the Sidekick 3, but we haven't heard much about any phones properly dubbed the LX, LE or Slide. More »
