  Sidekick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A sidekick is a stock character, a close companion who assists a partner in a superior position.
The sidekick has the literary function of playing against the hero, often contrasting in skill, asking the questions the reader would ask, or performing functions not suited to the hero.
The comic sidekick was a common feature in westerns, where Fuzzy Knight, Al "Fuzzy" St. John, and Andy Devine had longer careers than some of the heroic singing cowboys for whom they took pratfalls.

Sidekick is a set of easily-learned "core" rules that can get you up and running in a HERO System game quickly.
Sidekick differs from the full HERO System rules in just one major respect: the amount of details, options, alternatives, and minor/special rules available.
If you have a question about any element of the Sidekick rules, the best place to look for the answer is the HERO System 5th Edition rulebook.

 Wimberley Professional Photo Gear - The Sidekick
Remove the Sidekick and your ball head is ready to use with smaller lenses.
I particularly like to use the Sidekick with a Canon EOS 500mm f/4L IS lens for flying bird photography.
The fact that the Sidekick is small and lightweight and still allows me to use the ballhead for other types of photography is a real advantage.

 USATODAY.com - Sidekick is cool but a little clunky   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Unlike the wireless handheld communicators aimed primarily at business customers, Sidekick (the first model of which showed up last fall) is targeted at a mass-market audience of 18- to 34-year-olds, though as I wrote at the time, those of us with a few more rings around our trunks might crave the thing as well.
I wasn't wild about the picture-taking capabilities of the previous Sidekick; there are modest improvements this time around, such as better resolution (320 by 240 pixels vs. 120 by 90).
Sidekick can hold up to 36 pictures; the images can be automatically attached to e-mail.

 How NOT to steal a SideKick II   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
When my friend realized that she had left the Sidekick in the taxi she asked me to immediately send a message to the phone saying that we would give a reward for the phone.
He also has a page on Myspace: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofileandfriendID=76638026 The problem with his story is that his SISTER told me in an IM that HE found the Sidekick in a taxi..and that HE gave it to her to use...
From what I am understanding..The brother is the large guy in the pic...he is 25...I believe he found the Sidekick first...he then gave it to his sister..who is 16 with a baby....Her boyfriend then got involved..he is the "military" guy who is somewhere between 24-26.

The Sidekick has 16MB RAM, and yields approximately three hours of talk or data time between charges; it weighs in at a reasonable 6.2 ounces.
The Sidekick uses the same GPRS network as T-Mobile's Pocket PC Phone Edition, but I've found the performance to be significantly better.
The Sidekick also lacks the superb phone integration of Pocket PC Phone Edition, and the absence of a touch screen makes dialing a bit of a hassle.

 Holy Second Banana! Whatever Happened To Sidekicks?
The idea is that the image of the ‘good father’ superhero who ‘rescues’ the sidekick son or daughter is a preferable one to seeing all men in the face of the abusive man in his or her life.
While one can point to other hero and sidekick teams (Green Arrow and Speedy come to mind), the concept of man and boy fighting crime as a team was invariably tainted by the ‘ambiguously gay duo’ rumors surrounding the dynamic duo.
As a side note, it is rather interesting that in The Dark Knight Returns, a story replete with repressed homosexual tendencies, the ‘Robin’; of the duo was a young girl instead of a boy.

When you see one as you walk by a T-Mobile store (the company has the Sidekick II exclusively), you will be struck by two things: it looks a whole lot more like a games console than a phone, and it is big.
Sure, voice calls are technically possible, but the Sidekick II feels like a brick to hold to your ear, and as it lacks Bluetooth you can’t use a wireless headset instead.
