Want a free Sidekick Slide? How about a Sidekick LX for 50 dollars. A 1 year contract instead of a two year contract?

This is a deal that has been around for awhile. People are selling it on Ebay for 20 dollars or more. I will give it to you for free.

Just call 1-866-464-8662 (Press option 3)

Try telling them your mom mentioned an “Avon family and friends discount”

New post is up here Another Way to get Sidekick LX for 50 dollars Requires 2 year contract.

Update: 4/08/08

From the last few comments, the code below is no longer working. The best bet is to be a family member of an Avon rep who has heard about the deal.

Give them Code 5871TMLAD

UPDATE 4/5/08

This is a comment from Debbie: I was lucky enough to speak to a rep that actually gave me the code its 5871TMLAD i think its only for the lx u still need to say u work for avon be really friendly and hopefully it will work.

You have to get new service to get this discount or you can add a line to an existing service for 9.99. The Sidekick Slide is free after a 50 dollar rebate and the Sidekick LX is a heavily discounted 50 dollars after mail in rebate.

My favorite part is the one year contract. I really hate 2 year contracts of any sort!

This is a great chance to get cheap t-mobile sidekick phones.

I leave it up to you the moral implications of saying you are affiliated with AVON but surely someone you know sells it! =)

Oh and also ask about the free 50 dollars in accessory credit too! You may be able to get a good blue tooth headset or another sidekick memory card.

Have fun and let me know how it works out!

This is supposed to work for other T-mobile phones as well so good luck!

That’s right! The T-Mobile Sidekick 3 is back on sale on the T-mobile website! It is priced at 99.99. This makes it perfect for people who felt limited y the Sidekick ID but didn’t want to pay 199.99 for the Sidekick Slide or 299.99 for the Sidekick LX. The Sidekick 3 lets you stay connected with Talk, text, IM, or e-mail. But unlike the Sidekick ID, it has a built-in MP3 player and a 1.3 megapixel camera. It also can be hooked up to your computer so you can upload music, pictures or new themes.

You can buy one from T-Mobile right now.

Wow-  This should lead to some interesting new developments.  Hopefully they allow Danger to continue to create the Sidekick Phones that we love so much! 

From the article: ”

Microsoft took another step Monday toward its goal of developing a mobile device that can handle everything consumers need - whether they’re at work or play. The software behemoth bought Danger, a Palo Alto company best known for creating the technology behind T-Mobile’s chic Sidekick smart-phones.

The companies did not disclose financial terms of the deal, which comes just weeks after Danger filed plans in December to go public.

“From the beginning we have talked about one phone for life,” said Scott Rockfeld, group product manager for Microsoft’s mobile communications business. “No longer do we have the Wild West of mobile phones,” where consumers have to carry a holster loaded with everything from a cell phone to a music player.

Danger is not a household name. But the Sidekick phone became a fashion phenomenon in recent years among “tween-agers” and 20-somethings after being spotted in the hands of celebrities such as Snoop Dogg and Paris Hilton. Sidekick sports a large screen that swivels into place, revealing a “QWERTY” style keyboard that makes it handy for instant messaging, text messaging and e-mail.

That made Sidekick a powerhouse among smart-phones, the fastest-growing segment of a cell-phone market that could top 1.1 billion in sales this year, analysts say. Sidekick accounted for the bulk of Danger’s $50.6 million in 2007 revenue.

Danger gets credit for the device’s simplicity. And that could make Danger a compelling addition for Microsoft, which has developed the Windows Mobile operating system that underlies many cell phones and mobile devices worldwide.”
