I love my sidekick II. Have been through all the models. It's definitely not for everyone, and having a developer key is definitely a big reason I've kept it. The sidekick keyboard is the best feature in my opinion. the camera is virtually worthless except for just fun quick pics. AIM is a great feature, I just wish there was an ICQ client. I use three pop email accounts in the mail app and usually only load up thunderbird to permanently delete messages once a week, or send emails with attachments. ssh client is great to jump onto servers in a pinch, and the web browser kicks major ass most of the time. it does have it's problems, sometmes poor service and no data connection, but unlimited data for $19/month is hard to complain about when it goes down for an hour or so. And it's saved my ass so many times in the last few years. Out at a bar and there's a debate, load up google and questions answered, lost in a new city, load up google maps and go, etc..
