Sidekick 'Lite' Officially Launched



While Sony kills its stripped-down version of the PS3, T-Mobile is taking the opposite tact with the official launch of the low-end Sidekick iD. Available beginning April 25th, the $99 iD features the standard Sidekick accoutrements: 2.4-inch color screen, a full keyboard, and integrated chat support for AIM, Yahoo! Messenger and Windows Live Messenger. It also boasts a rubber exterior, which can be swapped out to fit its owner's personal color scheme. However, at a $100 discount compared to the full-featured Sidekick 3, it's no surprise that a few luxuries have been scrapped, most notably the camera.
