Parts of Your T-Mobile Sidekick
The illustration below identifies the basic parts of your device.
Each part is described in more detail in the topics below.
Device Display
Your device comes with a swivel display lid that covers the keyboard in the closed position. Even when closed,
the LCD faces up and the control buttons are exposed, so you can use your device. When you open the display
lid (by rotating it clockwise), the display automatically flips 180-degrees. Read more details below.
Warning!
The hinge in the swivel display lid is assisted by a very strong magnet. Be careful to keep the device
away from magnetically sensitive items, such as credit cards and floppy disks.
