T-Mobile Sidekick sales up after Hilton hacked

In a stunning example of how there is no such thing as bad press, T-Mobile stores in New York are selling out of the Danger Sidekick. Whether this is despite of, or because of the high-profile hacking of Paris Hilton's SideKick data is unclear, but nonetheless, people are astounded by this. "Heavy" suggests that T-Mobile should capitalize on this by pushing Paris Hilton as spokesperson more than they are now.

I don't have a whole lot else to say about this, except for the fact that I really can't see why people as so willing to have someone who time and time again has expressed abolutely atrocious judgement as an advocate. Sometimes, I wonder what it's like, to be so famous (and for the wrong reasons), that you can end up making money on even your biggest mistakes.
