T-Mobile Sidekick 2 Juicy Couture - Mister Cartoon Edition

T-Mobile Sidekick 2 Juicy Couture & Mister Cartoon. Fashion and Function Come Together in New Solid Pink and All-Black T-Mobile Sidekicks.

Some people will ask, “Is it a phone or a fashion accessory?” Is it for texting, talking or just a matching accessory? The answer is easy: yes to all. To help kick off the DigitalLife consumer technology event in New York, T-Mobile USA presented its new limited edition models of the T-Mobile Sidekick 2. Partnering with two of today’s hottest and most authentic names, T-Mobile unveiled the stylish pink T-Mobile Sidekick 2 Juicy Couture Edition and the bold, black T-Mobile Sidekick 2 Mister Cartoon Edition.

Available in limited quantities online and at select T-Mobile retail outlets in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and Miami beginning Oct. 24 - these two devices will continue to redefine the way people communicate. Whether it’s instant messaging with your best friend from a concert, browsing the web for the latest sports news and scores, or simply chatting on the phone with your significant other, the T-Mobile Sidekick 2 is still the ultimate communication device - and now it’s even more of an attention grabber.

T-Mobile continues to be a leader in style and innovation within the wireless industry and the T-Mobile Sidekick 2 has been the leading device in these areas,

said Michael Gallelli, director and head of product marketing for T-Mobile, USA.

That is why we are so excited to partner with Juicy Couture and Mister Cartoon, who are helping us continue the tradition of combining unique and intricately designed devices with T-Mobile’s reliable, nationwide service.

To truly help make this device “your own,” T-Mobile, in conjunction with Juicy Couture and Mister Cartoon, also is making available accessories for each device including:

• Carrying Cases: Black leather and blue denim for Mister Cartoon LE; Pink and brown velour and black, gold and silver leather for Juicy Couture LE
• Wristlets: Pink velour and black, pink, gold and silver leather for Juicy Couture LE
• Charms: Yorkie Terrier; Heart; Cherries; Horseshoe; Surfboard for Juicy Couture LE (special Juicy Couture Sidekick Charm coming in November)

Although it is the outward appearance of these limited editions that will quickly catch the eye, what’s new inside is notable as well. A new enhanced browser to be available later this year will provide more features than ever before; now, users will be able to program their TiVo, manage their NetFlix rentals and RSVP to the hottest holiday parties via Evite.

All of these new features combined with the traditional Web browsing, email, text, IM and phone features, as well as the unique swivel-open QWERTY keyboard, have made the Sidekick the cool tool of choice for many of the most famous names in music, sports and entertainment.

Who is Mr. Cartoon?

For those of you who want a limited-edition T-Mobile Sidekick 2 but, don’t know Mr. Cartoon from Adam, ‘Darla Mack’ explains…

Tattoo artist Mr. Cartoon is best known for his inkwood on musicians such as Travis Barker and Ludacris. Now he’s tricked out a limited-edition T-Mobile Sidekick 2, in addition to the usual cell phone, camera, comfy keyboard (the best on any phone, bar none), and e-mail and IM capability of the old Sidekick, this model lets users access their Netflix, TiVo, and Evite accounts. Mostly, though, it just looks cool - and it’s less of a commitment than Mr. Cartoon’s other work.

The T-Mobile Sidekick 2 Mister Cartoon Edition and T-Mobile Sidekick 2 Juicy Couture Edition, both based on Danger, Inc.’s hiptop Wireless Solution; and the accompanying accessories, will be available the week of October 24 at select T-Mobile retail stores in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and Miami. They will also be available nationally at www.t-mobile.com, while quantities last. Retail price for each is $399.99. Accessories range from $24.99 to $79.99.* Additional information is available at www.t-mobile.com/sidekick.
