Nope. Big hole in its software is it can't handle Javascript. Lots of speculation in posting forums for users about it coming sometime but until it does too many sites will be unusable. I had the very first version, the B+W one, and it wasn't bad. If I remember right I could only bet with Pinny and WSEX with it. I got a Palm 300 instead and was able to add a few others, Holly and Sky. The new Palms 600/650 can handle Javascript so I am guessing you can bet with just about anyone.

Also be wary about coverage. TMobile has lots of holes. I am on Sprint now and its far better. Still for the money, which with rebates now is pretty much free with service, the Sidekick is a great deal.

I have one and its one of the worst purchases i ever made. If you are buying a phone for internet access, DONT GET A SIDEKICK!!!!!!!

Sidekick is purely for chatting and macking for the ladies....(too bulky for me any way) Its a useless piece of trash man.

Pocket PC is a much better option than the sidekick.

I have the pocket pc for tmobile and it rocks!!
Can bring up my site and place my wager. They dont sell them anymore but you can get one on ebay for a few hundred..:103631605
