Google Chrome OS unveiled, released to open source community

The Sidekick 2008 is a T-Mobile messaging phone featuring a full QWERTY keyboard, web browsing with full HTML capabilities, and customizable shell designs. The 2.6-inch display with a 400 x 240 resolution slides out on a hinge to sit above the full keyboard, which includes a trackball and directional pad for navigation.

The phone also comes with a 2-megapixel camera, a video capture function, and 64 MB of internal memory to store the images and clips. It operates through T-Mobile's EDGE network and has access to video and image viewing, Bluetooth, e-mail services, and instant messaging.

Following hardware problems that caused some Sidekick owners to lose their personal data, T-Mobile pulled the Sidekick from the market. It was re-introduced in November of 2009 at a lowered price: $49.99.
