Default The new i600 - The successor to the Blackjack?

Now this phone has my interest. Finally a phone that has everything. Hopefully battery life will be better.

I believe the BlackJack is simply the US version of this phone. I doubt we'll ever see it here. I have been wrong before, of course...

Yup, the gray outline. Basically, you can push either of those keys and the phone will accept it as that number. I don't think the BJ does that. I don't have mine yet, so I could be wrong.

The BlackJack does that as well. These are essentially the same phone.

Cool. I don't have mine yet, so I wasn't aware of it. Hopefully it will arive soon.

Send a message via MSN to bnycastro Send a message via Yahoo to bnycastro

according to CNET asia it will have wifi I also talked to someone [although in Marketing] at SAMSUNG Philippines and she confirmed it will have WiFi but will be released next year [we are just getting the i320 now so that may be the reason for this].

Maybe the this international BlackJack release will help to push Vaja to make a case. When I emailed them they told me they are not planning on making a case for this device.

The measurements are all the same right?
