Premise: A tipster had told BGR that the Sidekick, on T-Mobile and made by Microsoft-acquired subsidiary Danger, would be replaced by the Android-based forthcoming and rumored myTouch Slide, a myTouch 3G device with a sliding QWERTY keyboard made by HTC. Microsoft has yet to announce what will become of the Sidekick line, but hopefully the technologies from Danger could be integrated with Windows Mobile 7 or a potential Zune phone. Guess we’ll have to wait until Mobile World Congress next month to learn more. (via: BGR)
Hypothesis: The tipster was not supposed to reveal that information and will be fired tomorrow.
