Sidekick Aspen/Gekko Screenshot

May 4, 08 10:40 PM PDT

I have a very strong feeling that the Sidekick Aspen/Gekko will be the same handset, but am not quite sure just which name will T-Mobile bank on (no pun intended) in order to rake in the dough as customers sign up. Gekko might be the better choice, considering its catchy sound and flirting with the ability of the device to change colors. This will probably be the follow up to the Sidekick iD which was released quite a fair bit back, and will feature a similar display and features to that of the LX. No iea on how much it will cost, but it will be cheaper compared to the Sidekick LX.

ok the sidekick gekko will be first offered in the U.S, according to hiptop 3. it will be a lower end modle. the aspen is not know about and has a spaperate release date. They may be the same, but the 2 release dates suggest a second device. The Gekko should cost arround $300 without a rebate or discount, and the aspen is unknown. I think T-mobile will not release a higher end modle then the Lx until closer to christmas. I would hold off on buying any sidekick until they upgrade the camera to the Sharp 5 megaplxel mini camera. Since sharp makes Sk u know they wll have it soon and guess what it records video. The camera is smaller then the one currently in the sk lx. Also microsoft will make so many inprovements to the SK function that danger could not. Sidekick are greate devices but their function does not match the cost.
