T-Mobile has announced yet another themed Sidekick device. This time, skateboard legend Tony Hawk will be taking the reigns of the design team, creating a communications device that’s bound to please teenagers everywhere. Aside from the cool, blue graphics on the screen, the bottom of the device will have a grip-tape-like surface similar to that of a real skateboard. There’s even 8 miniature screws shoved in there to emulate a set of trucks being screwed in to a deck.
On the software side, you’ll find a special Tony Hawk theme full of graphics, wallpapers and videos – all exclusive of course. Looks aren’t the only thing this Sidekick LX will have – T-Mobile is taking this opportunity to release a new version of the OS the Sidekick uses, which will include video capture and sharing. Perfect for those hot summer days of shredding in the park. Hit the jump for another shot of the new LX.
