Sidekick downer

Since I’ve been boosting the Sidekick excitedly for the last few days, I ought to let people know about a caveat. If you use Keyguard mode, sometimes incoming calls won’t ring, which means you’ll miss the call unless you happen to be looking at the screen when the call comes in. (Keyguard mode automatically locks the screen after a given period of inactivity, to prevent accidental calls.) If you turn Keyguard mode off, no problems.

Danger and T-Mobile both acknowledge the problem; at the message board above, tony is from Danger and morpheus is from T-Mobile. There’s reportedly a fix in beta, but no release date yet.
