T-Mobile Sidekick 3 - Special Features
The latest incarnation of the Sidekick is some 20 percent smaller than the Sidekick II.
A new trackball provides one-handed navigation, and Bluetooth functionality has been added to the device.
Moreover, the Sidekick 3 has been turned into an MP3 player with a Mini-SD card slot for additional memory.
Additionally, for the first time the device would be able to connect to all three major IM networks including MSN, and would be EDGE-capable.
The Sidekick 3 is built around an ARM processor to speed data access, and features a longer-lasting and replaceable battery.
The most important new features include: * Trackball and new user-interface for easy navigation * Media player for MP3 files and stereo headset * 1.
3 Megapixel digital camera with LED flash * Supports up to a 2GB mini-SD card (for expanded music and photo storage) * Bluetooth connectivity for wireless headsets and vCard transfer * EDGE for faster Web surfing * OMAP processing architecture for high-performance Some of the new features and improvements include: myFaves: Now T-Mobile Sidekick 3 users can have the myFaves experience by choosing from a range of myFaves plans to get unlimited calling to those five designated people - to any number in the U.
S.
- even landlines (excluding toll-free and 900 numbers).
The myFaves interface, which features icons or photos on the home screen for five 'Faves,' also enables the user to access a straightforward communications menu for calling, texting and multimedia messaging.
To turn on the myFaves interface, customers will need to accept the OTA update and call T-Mobile customer care or go online to choose among the myFaves rate plans.
- Active Address Book: Call, text, email, or IM a friend directly from the address book with the press of the trackball.
Users can even map their address.
- Text message character counter: So customers know when they've said as much as they can say in a single text message.
- Ability to save photo attachments from emails to a photo album on the Sidekick.
