I am really interested in getting a sidekick II, but i have heard that it has a really bad internet browser and its operating system will not allow you to install your own programs on it. So i am wondering if it would be possible to remove the Hiptop OS and install Windows Mobile OS on the sidekick II, and if i do this, will i still be able to get service and internet from T-Mobile? I am also wondering what the harddrive capacity of the sdk2, if it is true that there is no expansion slot, and what the oppinions of people who have the sdk2 are. Also, would it be possible to install a program like napster on a smartphone(not necesarily the sidekick) and use it to listen to music on your phone?
