It’s electric! The following is a journey through T-Mobile’s newest Sidekick effort – a project that’s produced a device that’s no less than a hipster masterpiece, one that’ll make all your oddly fashioned cloth wearing friends say “uh, I don’t want to sound like a newb or anything, but that phone looks like it’s totally amazing, and I have no idea why I don’t already have it.†That’s right – this is the phone that all the art students who live on the South side of Minneapolis will want to be grabbing asap lest they miss the pink bus – aka they’re going to want to get the one I’ve got here, the white and pink edition. So cute! First Impressions There’s two different moments when you “first see†a phone if you’re a person who reviews electronics for a living like yours truly. First there’s the first time you open the box – you’ve got to see what’s inside the box, you’ve got to pop the batter cover off the device, and you’ve got to see if the device will turn on without the assistance of a battery

This is an engine made to replace your current mobile homescreen with a miraculously gorgeous looking set of 3D moving panels, with which widgets can essentially come alive.
