T-Mobile has partnered with fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg and streetwear giant Lifted Research Group (L-R-G) to create the latest limited edition T-Mobile Sidekick devices.
Diane von Furstenberg made fashion history with her signature jersey wrap dresses. Today, the Diane von Furstenberg brand is internationally recognizable. Exuding a free-spirited independence and straightforward style, the Diane von Furstenberg Sidekick from T-Mobile is dressed in sleek black and features Diane's signature hot-pink lips.
Lifted Research Groups' slogan is simple, "underground inventive, overground effective." "Underground inventive" meaning: how something starts out, the beginning, the roots. "Overground effective" meaning: what happens when those roots are cultivated and become strong. L-R-G is the first company to bridge the gap between the skateboarding and urban communities. With an eye toward self-expression, the Lifted Research Group Sidekick from T-Mobile is hidden within the traditional baby tree camouflage and customized with L-R-G's iconic imagery.
The T-Mobile Sidekick 3 provides a variety of communications options, including phone capabilities, built-in support for three major instant messaging clients, personal email, and Web browsing. The limited edition T-Mobile Sidekicks is equipped with the same feature-set as the T-Mobile Sidekick 3. In addition to using the device's voice-calling capabilities, users can stay connected with instantaneous access to email, instant messenger (AIM, Yahoo! Messenger and MSN Messenger), and text messaging on the full QWERTY keyboard.
Web-browsing capabilities, enhanced with EDGE technology, ensure faster downloading speeds for accessing social networking Web sites and photo-sharing communities. Additional features include a 1.3-megapixel camera, an MP3 player, Bluetooth technology, a trackball for easier navigation, and its slimmest size ever.
Packed with the same great technology features as the T-Mobile Sidekick 3, the new limited edition T-Mobile Sidekicks will be available in limited quantities at select T-Mobile retail stores and online beginning Oct. 30.
The Diane von Furstenberg Sidekick from T-Mobile and the Lifted Research Group Sidekick from T-Mobile will be available at select T-Mobile retail locations and online at www.t-mobile.com, while quantities last.
