Hopefully it will be a new better OS.

I don't think that the new kick looks that great..I like the way the old lx looks. I think imma stay with the g2 when it comes out :)
I will definitely try this phone out even though I HATE sidekicks after my last LX. For the design I'd have to say its nice. Its a pic so it may look different in person.

not only is it a pic, but I think its just a render

We should get a pic of it like 1 month or less before it comes out.

Apparently the new OS is NetBSD, not Windows CE:

I knew it was coming since MS bought Danger, but it's pretty funny to think of a Sidekick running Outlook and Exchange syncronization. Yeah, THAT'S the target demographic for sidekicks.

I'm doubting the Sidekick would step up into the smartphone category. But the Sidekick MX and FX may signify that MS wants 2 levels of Sidekicks. One for "business" and one for "personal" use perhaps. But I think the Sidekick's reputation as a phone for teenagers will be the limiting factor.
Read the forum rules and search!

Well, it will still be aimed towards teenagers I would guess, but it still has the same pricing for plans as smartphones, so really, is it worth it?

Okay . MY Opinion Is :

New Sidekick 2010 ShouLd Have a Better Keyboard ; Should Be Smaller Than The LX 09 ; Should Be Touch Screen
But If Its Touch Screen Then There Will Probaly Be No Keyboard & Thats The Whole Point Of
The Sidekick , The Keyboard . Cus Touch Screens Need a Big Sceen Right ? For example The i Phone
Then The New MY Touch & The EnV Touch . The Screen Takes Up The Whole Phone . So Maybe They Shouldnt Have
a Touch Screen Sidekick Cus i Like The keyboard . i Think They SHould Improve On There Pysical
Appearence .  & The balls Get Messedd Up Mad Quick . & They Should Be able To Have Cases Like The Sidekick

One day I hope to see a Sidekick w/ Android.

And your right, I dont think they should ever put a touchscreen on future sidekicks, that is, if there will ever be future sidekicks lol.

Please use more proper English please.  The text/IM language is just plain annoying to read when it is long.  Leave that to your chats with friends.  In the forums, use plain English.  It took me three times longer than I needed to read what you said.
