The rumored Tony Hawk edition of the Sidekick LX is said to be making its first public appearance today, looking every bit the part with a "skateboard look and feel" made complete with "grip-tape-texture" and the skateboarding icon's name plastered across the display's bezel. This one isn't just about branding, though -- it's being said that T-Mobile will use the occasion to launch a rather hearty LX firmware update that includes video recording, stereo Bluetooth, additional themes, some sort of video sharing capability, and more; it'll be available to all LX owners some time this summer via an over-the-air update. Meanwhile, the very special Tony Hawk piece should be made available to buyers in mid-July.

Tony Hawk lost his appeal to anyone old enough to afford (or at least make proper use) of a device like this years ago...

^ i agree to an extent but if you watch any of the x games on sky or any extreme sports Tony hawk is still talked about a lot.
He is also a member of the Swatch pro team that tours the world showing off their talents and the people who buy their watches are just quirky enough to buy that handset.
