"And waiting was absolutely worth. The only 11.8 mm thin UMTS and HSDPA Smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard also features triband GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850 MHz aren't supported) as well as WiFi b/g (something the BlackJack lacks) and Bluetooth 2.0 EDR. It blends the feature-rich, desktop functionality of the Windows Mobile 5.0 platform with extensive multimedia capabilities to help people work on the go, stay in touch with family and friends or just have fun. It is also the first smart phone to support web applications such as podcasting and RSS Reader."
Arne over at The Unwired has some great screenshots of the i600. When I first heard of the i600 I knew I had to have this phone. With UMTS and HSDPA and Wifi? This baby would be mine. Then reality hit and I found out that it's a European phone (850 MHz isn't supported). Instead we get the Blackjack and while I think it's a great smartphone, I really want WiFi. How about you? Does the Samsung SGH-i600 with WiFi beat the Blackjack or does having WiFi make any difference?
