I have a S620 and love it!!! But that doesn't matter. The Blackjack will be mine as soon as it is available at my CIngular store.

Off topic: Isn't it a crazy week to launch the BlackJack. This is the gadget week: Zune, Wii, PS3 and BlackJack.

Don't forget the 8525 on Cingular as well. This is going to make the decision harder as I now suddenly want the BlackJack.....

according to phone scoop, this phone has a 1200 mAh battery. i recall the i320 had a 940 or 960mAh battery. hopefully this will improve battery life. on the other hand, the increased capacity may be offset with that power hungry 3G, hopefully, you'll have the option to use regular GSM (?) like the Tytn and my Treo.
i must admit, that thing looks very tempting!!!

That and the fact the processor speed has been stepped down from 400mhz to 220mhz. I'm sure both of those factors will help the battery life. The press release mentioned a 5.5 hour talk time...I would say that is a HUGE improvement. Seeing that the Dash's talk time is right around 5 hours as well. I believe the i320 was right around 3 hours.

Has there been any official confirmation on the no contract price for the Blackjack on Cingular?

I'm having the worst time deciding between a BJ and an 8525, so I picked up both since the store said I could return either and still get the upgrade discount on whichever I decide on. Nice guys.
For what it's worth, I was blown away to see that the BJ comes not only with a second battery, but a clever external charger that lets you always have a battery ready to roll. Pretty impressive.

Thursday I bought an 8525 and returned it to get a BlackJack. The 8525 was the best PocketPC phone I have every used, and I have used a few .
The form factor of the BlackJack helped me make up my mind. I am really amazed how fast this thing moves from application to application.

Will this phone ever come to Canada?
I need a new phone, but Motorola Q doesn't do bluetooth wireless modem, can BJ be used as wireless modem over bluetooth?
