Abstract: We didnt have to wait very long for the successor to the original Samsung BlackJack (late 2006) to hit the shelves at AT&T. For those people who loved the original BlackJack, youre in for a special treat with the Samsung i617 BlackJack II. Keep readi...
Clunky video, Bumpy multimedia downloading, Headphones are not included
The BlackJack II offers the best of the original: the power of a PDA with the ease of a basic Smartphone. The video does leave a bit to be desired, as does the Internet download speed, but people would be hard pressed to find a more affordable –...

Abstract: If youve had your eye on the Samsung BlackJack II and the Motorola Q9 Global, youre not alone. Both run Windows Mobile 6 Standard and have a similar form factor and spec list - no wonder youre having trouble making a decision! I sought out to fi...
Improves upon the original BlackJack with GPS, a larger screen, more memory. Good battery life. Call management and scheduling are great on Windows Mobile 6.
