Bought the phone about 2 months ago, liked it at first but now I can't wait to get rid of it. The web browser is works at a snails pace. You can only download games or ringtones through the phone since you can only download Sidekick specific things the amount of ringtones and games are more limited. I bought the data plan with the phone but realized that I could not afford the extra $20 a month then I found out that without the data plan you cannot buy anymore download anymore ringtones or reinstall anything you may have removed to free up space and apparently without the data plan you also do not get any alerts for when you get a text/picture message. The sidekick also keeps randomly losing its signal and would take a few minutes to recover. The power button on mine also randomly quits working and other times works with a hair trigger, the slightest sneeze will turn the phone off. The sound on the speaker phone part is far to quite even when you have the volume for it turned all the way up.
Unless you plan on getting and keeping the data plan for this phone I would avoid this phone.

Hate new sidekick 2008! Its very slow web browsing, difficult to use phone, no hard copy manual.can't even access t-mobile's main page for support, sound is lousy, list goes on. Liked t-zones service better on old phone just as 'fast' sidekick support group not helpful. Returning this device asap!
