Sidekick 3 Interface Screen Shot : EXCLUSIVE!
Have a look my friends, you can see some new icons, the grouped instant messenger piece and some cool new icons. Sorry the pics were later than I thought, but they are starting to pour in. Remember what I said about the unified messenging? See how it shows what that MSN and Yahoo are connected and AIM isn't? So they are all still separate, but somehow they work as one. Pretty slick.
Super sleuths, what can you tell us about these new icons? One looks like a book with an @ on it. I can't really tell what the others might be. Any guesses? - BSD

excellent work bsd
i never doughted you BSD u been saying it all along and now the truth is coming out good job bro
the oen that looks liek a mini-sk seems like it may be for bluetooth...
SWEET!
Damn can't see shit on my sk
IT'S ALL COMING TRUE!!!! LOL
Yes...Its about time. This site officially official. I had my doubts but keep the pics coming!! Hiptop3 CATCH UP HOMEY!
BSD already uploaded them to blogger. You can go direct to the images at:

Im so excited for the SK3 i just want one in my hands already!!
The AIM shows connection status. The other two clients just have their names. Shouldn't all three show a connection status? Also, some of those icons look cheap and crappy. I'm voting fake.
Look, no cartoon people in the background
I'm voting fake since thats a Mac OS X background on a Sidekick....
yep, its photoshopped. good eye on the Mac OSX background. This picture is not real, sorry
i guarantee its not a fake since im the person who sent in the shot...those screens are what we are running in our next issue of the tech mag i work at..just b/c the icons look fake doesnt mean the pic is fake lol..it means they are poorly designed
look its BSD....er rupert22.....er.....
why dont you man up and just use your own name. and yes, im too lazy to register
ITS A MAC OS BACKGROUND
on the top right of the screen, where it says "TMobile", there's only four of the squares that seperate the letters. in the TMobile logo, there's a fifth square at the end.

SK3 sighting?
look on your sk2 and youll see there is no 5th square...logos come in different variants depending on the medium..print logos and web logos sometimes differ slightly
Once again, good job BSD, Keep it up!
It's not a MacOS background you bunch of fucking high school dropouts. It's just similar to the one in 10.3 (Panther) think about shit before you post it.
<3 E.
Oh and the icons are the same as they've been since 2.0 (1.x had the catalog at the bottom iirc)...
Catalog, IM, EMail, Phone, SMS, Address Book, Camera
..you fucking idiot.
<3 E.
dis 1 looks mad fake tha otha 1 looks real
Here's a link irving http://img228.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screeninstantmessspot0uw.jpg
THEIR YA GO, I BET HIPTOP3.COM DOESN'T HAVE THIS 1
THESE R NOT THE SAME ICONS AS 2.0 DID U FORGET U CAN SCROLL DOWN AND MORE ICONS COME UP? (DAMN USE UR FUCKIN HEAD, GIVE CREDIT WHEN CREDIT IS DUE)
Im not saying I believe this pic is real or not but I have a Mac, the backgrounds are similar, but not the same
Look at the date on the screenshot, if the pic is real this is a proto so the software would most likely have changed since then!
You know whats really funny? The fact that when someone posts an opinion you call them a highschool dropout and call us kids.....and then complain that the blog is going to hell. Well ya think you could make a proactive decision to HELP the blog?
Anyway, there are versions of Mac OS X. With each new version there is at least one new blue background. Figure it out.
Not, I'm not saying it's a Mac OS X background, I'm saying it could be. People could rotate things so no one could recognize them.
Now in the case that it isn't a Mac OS X background, which is 50/50...
This screendshot has curved siding. This is a photoshop tool.
Supposedly it was taken on a sidekick 3 and cropped.....now check out the new shot of the sk3....
The screen is all square when lit up...
Now why curved edges on this one?
And that font doesn't look right.
I'm calling a fake on this one, call me a kid, a highschool drop out, I don't care but this screenshot is probably a fake.
It's very convincing though, so BSD you did good anyway.
You could tell this pic is fake....
when you highlight a icon the splash screen goes with the icon and it makes the highlighted icon bigger...and it puts it in the middle....this one does not has it highlighted but its still in the second to the top and its showing the the aim yahoo msn splash screen....
since when do sk have 24 hour time? 15:00
even tho the background looks like this pic
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/media/2006/05/T-Mobile_sk3_0002.jpg
Well...this is some sorta great news to see how it may look like....
Icons match too...hmm
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/media/2006/05/T-Mobile_sk3_0002.jpg
"ou could tell this pic is fake....

I dont know what SK you are using but it does NOT go to the middle on my SK2 with the latest software.
It DOES look like the IM one is bigger!?
Also dont forget this could be a proto SW and dont forget there is the OS 3.0 coming out...
I dnt like how it is...wierd but it reminds me of pokemon! It looks wierd the jump screen
so its pretty obvious that he is a bot...

It's so close I can taste it!!!
And its yummy...
This conversation is fake - and you have WAY to much time on your hands.
Back to the subject, I think that this website sucks, and at first thought that the pic was tottally fake (the background DOES look very similar to a PC's background, NOT very sidekickish) However someone brought up the promo pic we've all seen, and it does indeed have the same background.
However, this guy DID post the background a while back, just the background, no logos or anything - how hard is it to photoshop that? Not hard at all
BUT - I must say that I am at a crossroad, leaning more toward "this pic is REAL".
Hard to say.... although I still like www.hiptop3.com better :)
sucks that the interface looks elementary and childish like i said before in a previous post.. we aren't all kids. Im glad to see something new but unhappy that the sk3 is starting to look like its for kids 5 and up.

A lot of stuff debunkign the myths.
I agree with you on the third, but im still quite skeptical on the second and the first.
Now I know no one will believe me but I still think its Mac OS X. I know its porbably not, but it's stuck in my mind.
The second thing, i still can't figure out. The curved edges do not appear on the SK3. Maybe it could have been photgraphed on another unit or something? I just don't know
And lastly, the overall look of the icons look fake.
Just my opinion, and the only way this blog gets anything done is good people like the guy debunking the myths and people coming to agreements and finding out new information.
Not people who have egos to prove under anonymous screen names.
You Americans think you have it so tough "ohh, this sucks! when will the sk just COME OUT ALREADY!!" (hehe just kidding of course) But what about us Canadians! We won't have an sk3 until 9 months after it comes out from T-Mobile (when it comes out to Fido)!!! And what about us even more unfortunate people, the ROGERS WIRELESS CUSTOMERS! Locked in a three year contract with NO CHANCE of ever seeing a Rogers Hiptop 3 because its "old technology" as a Rogers rep that I called said.
Anyways, I called T-mobile today and asked for release dates - the girl transfered me to sales saying "they might know something" This excited me because I usually just get a NO, not a transfer lol. Anyways, this girl said to keep checking T-mobile.com and keep calling, but she doesn't have any release dates. BUT, she DID say that since I live in Canada with Rogers Wireless, I COULD buy one off eBay when it becomes available, and then use my rogers sim (as it is GSM). Now, to be honest, she didn't sound like she knew a lot about this, as she didnt mention unlocking or anything. But assuming that I won't use the internet (therefore no need for a data plan) DOES ANYONE THINK THIS WILL WORK?!
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the response, I had a treo 600 but it broke, loved it but with the treo 700w and p out, im not sure if I could go back to it lol.
The frustrating thing is, I've called T-Mobile, Fido and Rogers about 100 times with the same question, inclusing posting it on forums, with different responses every time, which sucks.
The last time i called about this (but about the sk2, not 3) the guy said I wouldn't be able to text message or take pictures because every time I turn the phone off it will reset without the T-mobile network.
This really sucks, because I want a sidekick so bad - even if the sk3 comes out tommarow, I'd STILL settle for an sk2.
Rogers also has the Blackberry 8700, but I'm not really interested in that.
So, even if Rogers is not T-mobile's Canada roaming network, will I still be able to use it? I honestly am obsessed with the Sidekick, and I've tried hard to switch to Fido so I could at least get an sk2, but I've got a three year contract with Rogers.
I really don't see why it wouldn't work, I mean, it's a GSM sim card, doesn't it HAVE to work? I'd love to surf the internet on it, but I guess thats out of the question.
All I really want out of the sk2/3 is texting (i do this A LOT), camera and phone.
Thanks!
Its cool ;)<3
THIS IS THE BIG SECRET THAT T-MOBILE HAS BEEN KEEPING FROM US ALL ALONG!!!! THIS IS THE REAL INTERFACE!!!!
Thats more like what this company is hiding ;)
http://www.engadget.com/media/2006/02/apple_tablet.jpg
for all of the people who are asking when it's coming out, i just called t-mobile and they said late june, november, or december--they don't really have an exact date, and they said it may be around 300 to 400 dollars. also GOOD WORK BSD i think this is real. i believe in you babyy.! =]
"they said late june, november, or december"
Sounds like someone let the term 'late Jube' slip, and then said to them selves OOPS...and added 'november, or december'
Maybe? Lets hope so.
this is odd the date and time are the same on that pic and this pic...
http://i4.tinypic.com/10p66vl.jpg
This isnt coming until september... so dont get your hopes up everyone!
So all you people say the icons are fake. Don't you remember how fugly the other icons were? Are you serious? You think this is uglier?
By the way, get a life.
And you think you have one by posting that?
anyone who says this picture is real is clinging to some kind of retarded hope. Look again, people. Look at the several different focus levels of all the fonts. The name "T-Mobile" is out of focus while the icons are sharp. the date looks so superimposed its ridiculous. This is obviously a screen cap and everything should be the same. This is all besides the fact that the background in an inverted MAC OS background
im gonna draw the line here and dub this an official photoshopped picture.
"The name "T-Mobile" is out of focus while the icons are sharp"
Take a look at YOUR SK2...if you have one! Same thing!
the date is also a completely different shade than the rest of the fonts on the top bar.
"the date looks so superimposed its"
That also looks like that on my SK2 somewhat, though let's face it sharing pics like this (if real) do have their legal aspects the date could be altered on purpose..
"the date is also a completely different shade than the rest of the fonts on the top bar. "
Again look at your SK2!
Do we even look this closely at the devices we already have? Seems not...I had to double compare myself too...

Why do people fight to believe its true?
I mean that high res SK3....thats real.
This.....this isn't real. And what does anyone have to gain by saying it is?
I'm saying its fake not only because it really seems that way but to avoid dissapointment.
yo, why there is no wallpaper? it's look like layout design without wallpaper...it's suck again
hey i have a really stupid question, on any of the sidekicks, i plan to buy the new one, but when you go on aim, does it count as txts? or do you just pay monthy internet access and send as many as you want?
I think its real for two reasons.
1. Damn near every pic in the world is photoshopped in some way and some of yall foul out from reaching so hard to come up with reasons why its fake lol its just a pic... its really not that serious.
2. this BSD cat tags his pics with the spray paint tool in MS paint lol If he had any photoshop skills or even owned the PS program he wouldnt be using the MS paint spraypaint tool lol.

EXCLUDING International TXT (SMS) messages that is.
yeah that irvingdizxle lied
Its sweet, but too bad the screen resolution SUCKS ASS.
For what the Sk is used for I've never had a problem with the screen res.
Look at it this way, IF you break it it won't cost you $500 to replace the screen alone...
Iv been reading this site everyday 4 the past month nd I finally decided 2 comment 1 because I wanted 2 thank who eva this guy is who's doin the site because iv had the first sk when usta only have a cartoon character named johhny chase use it ne ways the first looks like a catolog the second seems 2 b the instant messaging the 3rd is email the 4th is a the phone now the 5th seems 2 b web browser or text messaging but giving the history of the sk's they allways put the web brower first so ima have 2 go with web browser as 4 the rest I really don't kno
on the new MTV SHOW "Blowin UP" staring Jamie Kennedy there are many scenes where you can tell he has a sidekick 3...... its not the cartoon verison trust me.... watch for yourself
Ur so stupid. If you werent blind you could see that IS the mister cartoon sk2. when he gets the voice mail from ice you can clearly see the phone. they put the camera right on it. you'd have to be retarded to think thats the sk3.
yea and plus why would t-mobile give jamie kenndey a sk3 out of all people??? he's not even a star anymore (lmao @ "anymore") he's trying to turn into a rapper or somthing because he's kinda "washed up". so just think about that.
Probably because he got a new show on MTV when the release is right around the corner....
Duh...
Doesnt matter. He's still not a celebrity. People that are more famous like movie stars or artists are more likely to get the phone. plus like someone said those recordings are old. Maybe sometime soon we will be seeing people actually using one in special events or what no, but from ACTUAL FAMOUS people, not washed up actors/artists that wouldn't be able to really give tmobile any kind of press/advertising help at all.
