Tony Hawk Sidekick LX LE launches in July, adds video recording, other features

So, you’re on the edge of seat waiting for this fabled Tony Hawk Sidekick LX to launch, huh? Good news for you then, because we just got the full scoop on it! The device will be “previewed” starting tomorrow but won’t go on sale until mid July. Beginning tomorrow, however, you’ll start to see it on Sidekick.com and “all over the news media.” The phone supposedly has a “skateboard look and feel with a grip-tape-texture and his well known hawk graphic.” Here’s where it gets interesting for all you Sidekick lovers, though — the device will ship with video recording capability, something called play and share (obviously sharing the recorded videos), stereo Bluetooth support, easier downloads and more themes and background personalization options. This summer, all Sidekick LX customers will get that OTA and be in video heaven.

Why would I get that one if everyone with a LX can get video? I’m not spending another 400 on a different color scheme.

Dear Tony Hawk: everything with your name on it, from shoes to decks to clothing to sidekicks, ends up being ugly. Stop making ugly shit. Seriously, it’s not funny anymore.

Better off getting a regular SK LX and send it out to colorware for your own set up. I did and they did f%#king banging job. I remommended them to all my friends. You pay a lil more in the end (like $20 compared to getting the tony hawk version)but at least it’ll come out your way and unique.

I think you may have been sucking too many “monkey nuts cornballs” because Blackberrys don’t run on Windows mobile, they run on their own OS, which is why many people, myself included love them. It’s much more stable than WM.
