Sidekick LX gets official launch date of October 24th?
The much-awaited Sidekick LX is due to make its debut in a T-Mobile store near you on October, 24th. T-Mobz appears to be handing out pre-release vouchers for the Sidekick LX, which make it possible to redeem it on launch day. We’ve uncovered a couple more shots of the device itself, which reveal that oh-so-sweet high resolution display. The thinness factor looks to be improved significantly, and it looks like Danger hasn’t messed with sucess, and left the QWERTY keyboard alone which is great. We’ll reserve final judgement until we get a hands on with the device, but with an October 24th release date, we’re sure we can expect more details to roll in sooner than later. One more shot after the jump!
UPDATE: Doesn’t the above photo look like a dummy unit? We’re betting this isn’t a working device, but it looks good anyway.
UPDATE 2: Yeah, now this makes sense…The picture of the Sidekick LX above is just the other side of the voucher card. No real device, no dummy device, just a picture. Thanks, Daniel!
oh yea oct. 24 here i come and im gettin it for christmas ♥

So if the ebay thing is really this is what it supposedly has
Phone is blue not black
Better Camera
voice messaging
picture messaging
very slim sort of like a razor
huge lcd screen… which makes everything on the phone look very clear
wi-fi supposedly
Colored text
faster service
music player
new games
memory card which allows you to hold a lot more songs and pictures (if you have certain cord you can play you music in your car as well as use it as a bluetooth and and talk through your car speakers)

I think he just threw the Wi-Fi thing in to make it more desirable.
There was nothing about wi-fi in the FCC tests.
Plus he orginaly spelled it y fi which to me means he wasn’t getting it off the box or manual.
I’ll be super happy if it does happen to have it though.
