Sidekick for Facebook, MySpace, Twitter

The “Communities” section of the messaging device Sidekick will quickly connect users to the social networking sites, including Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter. T-Mobile USA has today (April 17) announced the new T-Mobile Sidekick LX, featuring 3G for faster data speeds and enhanced mobile access to popular social media sites.  

The Sidekick LX, which is available for pre-order via a Web-only pre-sale for existing T-Mobile customers at www.sidekick.com, also provides improved video capabilities as well as GPS-enabled Live Search. In addition to the new features, it comes with a swivel design in two new colors — orchid and carbon. 

It’ll provide one-click access to the popular social networking sites, bringing Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter directly to the customer via customized applications that update automatically and put notifications directly on the Sidekick home screen, informs T-Mobile.  

And GPS-enabled Live Search will let Sidekick LX customers map their current location and search for a nearby coffee shop or café, share favorite spots with friends via integration with Sidekick’s messaging capabilities, or view additional search tabs to quickly check real time traffic, gas prices, or movie showtimes. 

The new Sidekick LX also delivers an improved multimedia experience with a 3.2 megapixel camera and enhanced video capabilities that make it easy for users to record and share pictures and videos on popular social networking sites. Support for audio and video streaming will let users view and listen to their favorite online content from sites like YouTube. 

The new device will also provide personalization options including the ability to record your own ringtone or receive and save them via e-mail.
