Sidekick.
I was randomly trolling around on the T-Mobile website today and noticed that Kirksville is now on their coverage map (a small red dot surrounded by vast sea of non-coverage). I rang up their 1-800 number to confirm that that it wasn’t my eyes playing tricks on me and lo and behold their reptold me that I can now get a Sidekick in my town. I can barely contain myself as I surf around for the best price…
Update: I ordered a Sidekick from Amazon for $99 (after rebates) and it should arrive on Monday or Tuesday. If it turns out that their customer service rep lied to me, I’m going to be one unhappy camper.
First off… HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I hope you’re spending it with loved ones.
Second… I wonder if the folks at t-mobile are specifically targetting college towns. It would be interesting to see whether other oasises of connectivity are centered around universities and the like. Hm…
