Why Sidekick sucks at a lower price than the iPhone

Apparently, the Sharp/Danger/T-Mobile Sidekick is a Microsoft phone. Now I understand why the poor phone runs out of memory so often. Microsoft buying Danger is one of those moves that MS employs in order to replace lack of innovation. In the old days, the software created by the 3-4 Danger employees should be written by the Windows CE team in two days. Should Apple make that software, it will take a week for the code and three months for filming the ads. The purchase will achieve even less than the buyouts of aQuantive or GIANT - can anybody point what exactly those companies were producing? As usual in recent years, Microsoft (under the appearance of desperation) divests again money from the shareholders into so-called investments.
