Danger, Inc. Company Description
Danger recognizes the peril of having too many devices in your pocket. The company provides software that enables hiptops -- mobile devices that combine the information management applications of a personal digital assistant (PDA) with Web-enabled cell phone features, including Internet browsing and messaging.

Its primary service partner, T-Mobile, markets hiptops under the Sidekick brand. Its OEM partners, Sharp and Motorola, manufacture Danger-enabled devices.
