So this is my 2nd real day with my new Sidekick and I’m loving it as much as I did my old sk2. This is what the sk3 should have been, not that plastic piece of crap it is. Everything’s been improved to the benefit of the users, except I do miss having the ssh application but i guess that there was no real demand for it.
I’m posting from my sidekick instead of making a tweet since most of the WP interface actually works in this ultra slimmed down version of Firefox. I would’ve never tried this on my sk2 since its browser was terribly slow and rendered javascript horribly. Not to mention loading the admin panel over GPRS would’ve taken at least 5 minutes then it’d just error out anyway.
Now only if they’d really open up the SDK for users to develop apps that might be useful instead of pushing a handful of crappy apps down our throats for a few dollars. Why is the Myspace application a $3/mo recurring charge? That’s just beyond me. I want something useful like the ssh application was but I know that’s not the crowd that Tmo markets to. Unfortunately to get the dev kit, you have to fill out silly paperwork and get approved instead of just being able to make apps people will probably want…like a streamlined blogging interface that hooks into your popular script’s XMLRPC API.
Now that’d be popular with the demographic of this thing.
