Well it looks like our earlier post was indeed correct, T-Mobile has officially announced the Tony Hawk Edition Sidekick LX. Complete with the special Tony Hawk graphics on the front and rear of the flip-out display as well as the grip tape like texture and eight screws on the bottom to give it a true skateboard style.
The specially branded Sidekick LX marks the first to ship with video recording and play and share. Other improvements include an improved web browsing experience, stereo Bluetooth, and easier downloads. They also increased support for background personalization and added more themes. The Sidekick also includes a Tony Hawk theme with special background, “skate-themed swivel screen open and close sounds” and an exclusive video.
As we mentioned earlier the current Sidekick LX owners will get an OTA update during the summer with the new features such as the video recording and improved web browsing.
As with previous Sidekick releases, current owners will be given the first shot at grabbing the new model, with non-owners following. For current Sidekick owners the Tony Hawk Edition will be available in July from either t-mobile.com or by calling 1-800-T-MOBILE, regular retail availability will follow “soon thereafter.”
