Thats right folks I have upgraded my phone recently and now have T-Mobile’s new sidekick. This spiffy piece of technoloy allows me to IM several people at once, grab my email from 4 different accounts, listen to music, and take snapshots (1.3 giga-pixel but what can you expect its a cell phone!) all while surfing the web for random (and useless) facts. But thats not all, I can extend it by taking images and uploading them to flickr pretty much in real time; use ssh to log into servers to move files and edit information; access your home computer for files; and to actually make phone calls without going through T-Mobile — which is good since I only have a data plan — using Skype (:-). All this for the low low price of $250. Yeah I know thats a fairly steep price but for what you can do — not to mention the fact that the data plan is one of the cheapest plans out — with the sidekick I think it can easily make up for this price.
Right now I am trying to figure out how to get it so that I can edit my website and various blogs that I own.
