We're not saying that the Sidekick 2008 is a bad phone - not at all. In fact, we wrote this entire review on its perfect little keyboard (in the body of an email message, of course, since the phone doesn't support Word documents). It's just...

Much like the BlackBerry, the T-Mobile Sidekick ($249) is a dedicated mobile e-mail device.
The Sidekick can open Word and PDF attachments (though you can view their content only as plain text), play sound file attachments, and display images embedded in or attached to messages.

Full QWERTY keyboard, brilliant screen, versatility, customization. The Sidekick 2008 is a pretty good phone overall. It is a terrific phone for text messaging, email and the occasional web browsing. (Weather, sports scores, myspace, etc.) I though for...
No Wi-Fi. This for me is a deal breaker. I really regret getting a phone without SOME kind of Wi-Fi, even if it is just 802.11a/b. It also is surprisingly bad at media support. It plays MP3s and WMAs, but only from the SD card (or measly internal...
