Should I Get a Samsung Jack or a Motorola Q9h?

Posted by Jason Dunn in "Smartphone Talk" @ 02:33 PM

In light of my previous post, I'm going to be switching from Fido to Rogers sometime in the next few days, and in order to get the $30/6 GB data plan I'm going to have to be locked in on a three year contract and get new hardware as well. That's not terribly surprising, and I don't really mind being on a three year contract - Rogers/Fido is the only GSM provider in this part of the country, so it's not like there's any other option any way.

The question for me then becomes, which model of phone should I go with? It looks like with a three year contract I can get the Motorola Q9h for $149 or the Samsung Jack for $49. I've never reviewed either one, and never even touched a Samsung Jack, so I'm not sure which one is the better phone. Any opinions, given my feeling that the T-Mobile Dash is the best Windows Mobile Standard device ever made? This question is somewhat academic of course, because it's not like this will be the only phone I'll be using in the next three years...but I'd still like to get a 3G phone that's a worthy successor to my Dash (since HTC seems to have largely given up on this form factor).
