shadow was supposed to be on display in Vegas and be out in mid October. It wasn't on display and no mention of it. That is what makes me think it got pushed back. It would be tough to release it so close to the G1 and pearl flip. We'll see.

Couple more things:
Behold (t919) will also come in pink.
Pearl flip will add additional colors at some point but that is fairly predictable.
We should see a 3g Sidekick next year. Not anytime real soon though.
This one is the best: They are definitely looking at bringing Android to the Shadow AND Sidekick lines. Don't ask for any details because I don't know. That was from the head of Product Development so it is legit.

The Holic will be called the Gravity.

As for the Shadow & Sidekick moving to Android...well, it makes sense really. T-Mobile can spend their $$$ on making higher end devices (features, etc) as opposed to licensing an OS for each device they sell. Windows Mobile & the Blackberry OS will have their niche for the forseeable future when it comes to the "Professional Market" (Exchange/BES support, etc), but for the average consumer (which the Shadow and Sidekick are designed for anyways), the Android OS would probably be a better option.

....IMHO....

So...  No word on Shadow II?   Do you think it is definitely off the books for this year?
As far as I know it's still up for October somtime.  At least I've not heard of anything else yet.
