Radio Shack outs T-Mobile Sidekick 4G release date

It may be April Fool day, but Radio Shack looks to be speaking the truth with one of their latest tweets regarding the upcoming T-Mobile Sidekick 4G. If you have been waiting for the Sidekick to get a breath of new life, then you will not have to wait much longer, as Radio Shack claims that the new handset will be available on April 20th.

Its not surprising that many people were a bit skeptical when they heard Samsung would be creating the next generation Sidekick, but the device looks solid. Samsung kept the traditional Sidekick aesthetics, brought the specs up to that of a mid-ranged/standard smartphone, added in some HSPA+, and let Android run the show. Doing this makes the new Sidekick a useable smartphone by giving it access to the Android Market, while retaining the look and feel of the original product line.
