The T-Mobile Wing is a good balance between Sidekick's user friendliness and a Blackberry's raw power.


Highs: Windows Media 6.0; worldwide service; MyFaves

Lows: Heavy memory management; clunky buttons; poor camera

Introduction

The T-Mobile Sidekick and its almost annual iterations have been a success, but it became exclusively associated with the young and hip around the time Paris Hilton was spotted with one (it may have been diamond-encrusted). Meanwhile, purchasing a Blackberry or Palm-based cell phone seemed to require owning several black business suits.

Wisely, T-Mobile came up with the Wing, a device for those of us too young for the boardroom, but old enough to want a phone without the word “bling” attached to it. Released in May, the T-Mobile Wing was the first phone with Windows Media 6.0 and packs all the Sidekick features into a portable, if somewhat chunky device.
