Hiptop mobile phones took their time coming to Australia.
Better known in the US as the Sidekick, the fashion-conscious amongst us were eagerly awaiting this celebrity favourite. And the third incarnation of this mobile phone to arrive in Australia, the Motorola Hiptop Slide, doesn't disappoint.
Available on the Telstra network, the Hiptop Slide is definitely targeted at younger mobile phone users - young females if you want to get specific - thanks to its communication functionality. As well as the regular SMS and MMS that most of today's mobile phones boast, there's also access to Yahoo and Windows Live Messenger and push email as well as regular Internet access.
If you're one of those tech types who has to stay in touch with your friends at all times, there's a mobile version of social networking site MySpace included on the handset (this costs an additional $5 per month on top of Telstra's standard $30 per month plan, which includes unlimited data).
In terms of other features, there's also a 1.3-megapixel camera and a 2.4-inch screen, as well as a QWERTY keypad.
