The screen was replaced two weeks before Jon upgraded to a new phone, the screen is FLAWLESS!

This Sidekick to is a trooper and is great for keeping in touch with your online life on the go at a great price! You can get the prepaid Sidekick plan from T-Mobile which is $1 a day for unlimited data transfer. You can connect to ICQ through AIM, and MSN through Yahoo. The phone has great email features also.

Here is some more info on this phone from http://www.epinions.com/content_159717691012
* Functions:

The Sidekick II uses its own operating system (not Windows) which is easy to navigate. You can access all its functions from the "Jump Screen" - the address book, e-mail, text messaging, AIM, a web browser, and more.

Address Book:
The address book is very easy to use, and allows you to store a great deal of detail for each entry. It's a great way to organize your ever-growing list of contacts.

My only complaint here is that after you locate a phone number in Address Book mode, pressing the "send" button will not dial the number, but act as a "page down" button instead. So you have to go into the Menu and select whether you want to call that number, or send a text message instead. It's complicated enough that I keep pushing the wrong button, and just another indication that this device is not primarily a phone.

E-Mail:
The e-mail program will let you check three POP accounts in addition to your [email protected] address. The program is easy to set up, and looks like a traditional basic e-mail program.

Text Messaging:
It looks a lot like the e-mail program, but simpler. Great for dashing off quick little messages to anyone with a cell phone.

AIM:
Again, easy to set up and use. You're up and running in minutes! You can also download Yahoo! Messenger for free, if that's your pleasure.

Web Browser:
The browser will let you use almost any site, i.e., the website does not need to optimized for mobile devices. It's very convenient to be able to get movie listings, restaurant info, and driving directions on the go.

Calendar & Notes:
The Sidekick II also features a Notes section, which will let you write and store a bunch of notes, and also a calendar which features a To-Do List section that will let you set alarms for your tasks. Very handy.

Camera:
Sidekick II's camera is cleverly designed with the lens at the bottom - so you hold the Sidekick up like you would a regular camera. It's got a flash, but no zoom. The quality of the pictures are not very good, however - they look fuzzy and washed out. The photos I took with the Samsung d415 are much better: there's simply no comparison.

Syncing With Your Computer:
The Sidekick II can be connected to your computer with a USB cable. In addition, there is a Desktop Interface, which you access from www.tmobile.com. From the Desktop Interface, you can access and modify everything on your Sidekick: your notes, calendar, address book, and pictures. Personally, I prefer using the Desktop Interface instead of the USB connection, because I don't have to mess with the cable, and can use any computer. I don't even have to have my Sidekick with me to see the information that I need.

In addition, you can also download a program (for $10) that will sync your Sidekick II with your Microsoft Outlook.

On top of all these features, you can also play games. The Sidekick II comes with a cool asteroid game, and you can download others.

The Sidekick II has a speaker phone and a headphone jack. Of course, you can also hold it up to your ear like a candy-bar style phone. As with any "Smart Phone," this actually isn't the ideal way to have phone conversations. Yeah, you can hold a Blackberry or a Treo up to your ear, but it doesn't feel as comfy and natural as a dedicated cell phone, either. Probably the best way to talk on the Sidekick is with a headphone/mic (which is included).
