LIKE MY REVIEW? PLEASE RATE IT SO I KNOW I AM PROVIDING GOOD INFORMATION!
As a seller of the Sidekick 3, this is the feedback that I have gotten from customers:
There is a difference in plastic, and therefore people who are used to the feel of the SK2 are a little put off by the less dense, and therefore not as heavy, Sidekick 3. However, it is a better design as far as the durability of the keys and the phone, though not as heavy, is equally if not more durable now.
You WILL NOT be able to bring ring tones and other applications/programs over from your SK2... This, in my opinion, is the biggest drawback of the SK3.
Tres is bluetooth compatible, meaning you can get a wireless headset now. Duce was great for text messaging but not a great phone otherwise.
Tres has MP3 capabilities. You will also experience faster browsing. The camera is better and the battery is now removable which works well for people who can now use a backup battery when needed. FYI-- DON'T KEEP YOUR BLUETOOTH HEADSET ON! That will run the battery out of your phone!
The cost of the Sidekick 3 is outrageous, in my opinion. I work with a lot of people in the deaf community, and these phones are great data only phones but often are not within budget. I do offer low cost Sidekick 3 phones, with and without data plans, but with 2 year T-Mobile contracts only which doesn't work for everybody. These tend to be a little pricey. However, the data plans with the Sidekicks are $19.99 including unlimited texting, which is $10 less than what you would be billed monthly for the MDA data which doesn't come with texting.
Also, there seems to be a rash of fraudulent sellers on eBay with Sidekick 3 phones, so always check the seller's feedback and ask questions before jumping into anything.
In all, my customers are extremely happy with the functionality of the SK3 and all the upgrades and features it offers. HAPPY EBAYING!
