3G Sidekick LX 2009 Edition Spotted

This comes with a big rumour tag, but a Hiptop3 reader claims that she spotted details on a 3G / GPS enabled Sidekick LX while doing a smartphone survey on Quizpoints.

The specs listed in the photo are as follows:

Social Networking Suite of Apps
– Facebook
– MySpace w/ video upload
– Twitter
– YouTube Mobile Access via browser

GPS Location Based Search
– Turn by Turn Navigation
– Microsoft Live Local Search and Maps

Content Creation
– Blog publishing, editing, and management client
– Photobucket Upload and Management
– Video recorder and upload to MySpace/Photobucket

Communications
– Signature Sidekick IM/SMS/E-mail Experience
– Microsoft Outlook/Exchange synchronization

Hardware
– Large (3.2 inch WVGA) screen with sharp 854Ă—480 resolution
– Thin design
– 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus, flash and video recording
– Large QWERTY keyboard
– Expandable memory up to 8GB via MicroSD

It could be a real product, it could be simple market research or it could be nothing at all, but if it’s true the 3G , GPS and YouTube mobile access upgrades will be welcomed by Sidekick fans with open arms. [Hiptop3]

    i sure hope so, it looks much nicer than the hiptop slide we currently have in AU. and the features are also much better, 3g, gps and a 3.2megapixel camera definitely outshines the slides 1.3MP camera lol
