Sidekick 3 LRG Limited Edition Unboxing

An SF Gizmodo reader sends in this unboxing of his Sidekick 3 to us with some additional news. Apparently, they've only made 1000 of these SK3s total—500 green and 500 black. The SF store on Powell and Market only had 10 of the LRGs and 10 of the Diane von Furstenbergs.

What's also interesting is that the T-Mobile guy at that store said he was in the process of getting the stock to T-Mobile workers so they can eBay them for $1,000. Not anymore, compadre! – Jason Chen

I just love the picture of the sk3 next to some marijuana on the keyboard. I bet that will go over REAL WELL with the sponsors.

I think i would rather have the synth than have the mary jane colored (and possibly flavored?) sidekick.

is the sidekick 3 smokeable to?

Is the weed for size comparison? Color comparison? Sticky good-good factor? Perhaps is just to explain why he hasn't bought a new Synth-board since '82.

The world may never know...

Weed is for dank comparison. The phone is green and has a bunch of trees on it, what else would go better? When is weed bad anyway?

Also, who needs a new synth after a juno-60?

Weed's there for dank comparison. Seriously, it's green and has a bunch of trees on it. Let me also remind you what LRG stands for, LIFTED research group.

Also, why would I need a new synth after I got a juno-60? pshhhh

The weed is there to remind you that before you'd ever find this to be a good deal, you'd need to smoke the enitre contents of the jar.

Today marked day 26 with my SK3. Tomorrow it goes back.
