T-Mobile to Launch Tony Hawk Sidekick LX LE with New Features Next Month

Humberto Saabedra

The first official images of the upcoming Tony Hawk Limited Edition Sidekick LX have surfaced as well as new details surrounding new features for the messaging device and Sidekick LX owners as a whole.

Beginning tomorrow, T-Mobile will begin a promotional campaign to spread awareness regarding the new model by posting the model on its dedicated SideKick page as well as listing a placeholder page on its general T-Mobile online sales page ahead of its release on top of media appearances.

The device will also feature updated firmware that will include video recording and sharing capability, which the carrier will call “Play and Share”, stereo audio Bluetooth support, and increased personalization options including an expanded theme selection.

The updated firmware found in the limited edition will also be sent out to all Sidekick LX users sometime this summer with no specific dates available for the staggered launch.
