Just got my new Sidekick2 from t-mobile...

maxdemo · Jan 27, 2006

Just got my new Sidekick2 from t-mobile to replace my Motorola Razr phone that i hated.

This phone is awsome!!!!

Its got a full web browser..was able to acess therx.com and able to place a wager on 5dimes.com website...real quick data speed.

So far so good...will keep you guys posted

Max, tell me if Pinny works and that you can get down a wager. That has been a big holdup for all PDA phones recently.

I dont have a pinny account

MrTeaser · Jan 27, 2006

Max how is the phone part? How akward is it to talk into to? Looked too big and bulky.

Its kinda bulky...like holding a bar of soap...but it came w/ a ear piece and it has a speakerphone which works great!!

I was able to access the main screeen @ Pinny

WildBill · Jan 27, 2006

Main screen and checking lines isn't a problem. It is logging onto the account and then placing a bet, but if you don't have an account you can't really help out. They added some sort of authentication script that PDA phones aren't handling from what I can gather. I had a Sidekick, the original B&W, and was able to bet on Pinny years ago, but this script seems to be handicapping every type of phone out there.

pic in case anyone did not lnow what it looks like

Dante · Jan 27, 2006

very nice max...how much did it cost you? and what plan are you on

Labeeb · Jan 27, 2006

I haven't had a problem accessing any part of Pinnacle with my Treo 650 with the exception of their horse racing section, which runs on a Java applet that no phone has been able to handle.

WildBill · Jan 27, 2006

Labeeb, who is your service provider?

I have t-mobile and have been w/ them for 5 years now. I signed a new 2 year deal and paid only $89.00 plus tax.
plan that I am on right now is the 1500 minutes for 39.99 and $20 for unlimited data and web browsing

Dante · Jan 27, 2006

WOW Nice deal may have to get this as my next phone

I got my brothers login info for Pinny and it did not work. It asked me to accept a script...which I did and then it took me to the home page to login again. I wont let me in

I've made bets on Pinnacle before using a Sidekick 2. (Not horses though, I imagine the horse platform wouldn't work.)

if your on sprint get the ppc-6700 it's like a mini laptop, can access any site and also watch the games live on there, pretty amazing phone/pda, and you get ev which is basically broadband internet connect, google it great phone :103631605

hellah10 · Jan 27, 2006

congrats on your new sidekick!

LucaBrasi · Jan 27, 2006

I'd like to have either the Treo or the Sidekick so I could get down without having to be on the office system.

Joeflex · Jan 28, 2006

I'm Looking for a New PDA Too

Hey Max can you tell me if you can place a wager at sportsbook.com on your sidekick? The thing is to log in you have to type your account and password as "guest" and "guest" and then normally you can go all the way through right until you're about to hit "place wager." I just got a Blackberry and I can't make this wager, even after enabling Java.

I'd love to hear if you can do this on the Treo too.

Sucks. :nopityA:

Thanks.

Jojo
