News reports have been popping out these past couple of weeks about a new Sidekick heading to the T-mobile line-up. Well now pictures are popping up to go along with the news reports. What you’re looking at is what seems to be called  the Sidekick LX 2009. Finally for once, this Sidekick might not be outdated from every other PDA out. The picture was spotted by a reader over at Hiptop3 who came across the image while taking an online survey. Of course specs have not been confirmed yet but according to the image, the phone boasts a 3.2-inch WVGA display (854 x 480), a 3.2 megapixel camera, microSD card slot, easy access to YouTube, MySpace and Twitter, turn-by-turn navigation and video recording capabilities. Could this really be it? Drop your thoughts in the comments.

The new Sidekick LX has been released today and packs a number of new features at a cheaper price. The LX boosts a 2.0-megapixel camera, 2.6-inch display (400×240), video recording/playback, stereo Bluetooth, spell check, improved browser and IM, custom “shells”, and smaller form factor. The pricing for the phone is $149 with a two-year contract and is available online or at your local T-Mobile store.

Many users are having mixed emotions about the brand new sidekick. Many have complained about the build of the device, saying that it felt cheap. Another complaint, was the 4 buttons on the front of the device were difficult to press. Others have said they would prefer to get a Sidekick LX or an iPhone for $50 bucks more.
