Default Samsung BlackJack Available at CompUSA Stores for $79.99



If you resisted the temptation to buy the BlackJack over the holidays, then how about $79.99 price? That is all you have to pay for the Samsung BlackJack according to the CompUSA flyer in today's newspaper after an instant savings of $320! You do not have to worry about the mail-in-rebates. The thing that is not clear is whether you have to sign a contract for one or two years. Hurry up there are only 5 units in each store, and do let us know if you take advantage of this deal.

grrrrrr.... I paid $200 (well, my employer did :wink: .)

By far the best phone I've ever had (and I've been through a few smartphones as well).

Run, don't walk for this deal.

BTW-does anyone still offer 1 year plans with discounted phones?

It is rare. Plus I think if you go for the 1 year option instead of the standard 2 year option, you get lower discount.

From the line "5 with new in-store activation." In past CompUSA flyers, this is how the indicate the number of units per store; at least that is what I thought it meant.

Why does the add say pre-installed Microsoft Office Mobile Applications? The BJ can read office apps with a 3rd party app. Thats it.

I didn't see that 5 after instantly..old age. ops: :-)

Could be..maybe someone can confirm. It would be great if that is the case. You can then even get rain-checks if they run out of units. :-)

The BlackJack is one of the best Smartphones out there. I wonder if they have extended batteries at Comp USA.

Great deal. CUSA usually requires 2-year, $40 and up plan. Too bad I'm already a Cingular user and can't take this advantage.
