Palo Alto, CA — April 25, 2007 — The T-Mobile® Sidekick® iD, powered by the Danger® mobile Internet platform, is available today at T-Mobile retail stores nationwide and online through www.T-Mobile.com. The T-Mobile Sidekick iD expands the T-Mobile Sidekick family and offers a variety of options that focus on individuality and staying connected. Combined with the familiar swivel-screen and full QWERTY keyboard, as well as Danger's suite of mobile Internet applications, the T-Mobile Sidekick iD is an obvious choice for Internet savvy, mobile messaging fanatics who want to express their personal style. Now consumers can choose the device that best suits their lifestyle and their wallet; the T-Mobile Sidekick iD, the T-Mobile Sidekick 3, and even the T-Mobile Sidekick 3, D-Wade Edition.
Offered with a number of colorful accessories, the T-Mobile Sidekick iD will be the most personalized T-Mobile Sidekick to date. The customizable exterior provides quick modification so users can mix and match based on mood, personal style, or that evening's outfit. Along with additional options for 'blinging' devices or wrapping them with unique graphic designs, T-Mobile Sidekick iD users will take the look and feel of their devices in all new directions.
All of these new options are in addition to the standard customization choices that already exist on the T-Mobile Sidekick 3. This includes support for one-click downloads from Danger's on-device premium services catalog to add ringtones, games and even productivity applications1. Users can also create custom audio and visual alerts, and use photos from the photo album as the default key guard screen.
"We have achieved an important business goal, which is to support multiple devices in the market simultaneously," said Henry R. Nothhaft, CEO and Chairman Danger, Inc. "And with multiple price points, consumers now have more choice when considering handsets powered by Danger's service."
Brought to life by Danger's mobile Internet platform, the T-Mobile Sidekick iD offers the same uncompromised Internet applications that define all Sidekick devices, including instant messaging (AIM®, Yahoo!® Messenger and Windows Live Messenger), e-mail and text messaging, as well as full HTML Web browsing1. Other signature Danger capabilities are standard on all T-Mobile Sidekick devices, including multitasking, allowing users to do things such as surf the Web and chat with friends via instant messaging simultaneously, as well as an always-on mobile Internet connection that enables push e-mail.
The T-Mobile Sidekick iD will have T-Mobile's myFavesSM available out of the box. The unique myFaves interface offers the ability to easily customize the home screen with photos of your five favorite friends and family members. The myFaves interface also enables effortless calling, texting, multimedia messaging and e-mail2.
