For comparison's sake, that's a few millimeters narrower and shorter than Motorola's popular Q. When you add to that a feathery 105g (3.7oz) weight, a QVGA display, and a full QWERTY keyboard, you have the basic building blocks for a very desirable smartphone. The BlackJack makes use of two different black finishes on its body. The front face of the device has a satin look to it that does a decent job of staying clean. The back cover has a different finish, one that is similar to the soft touch, rubbery finishes seen on some Motorola devices like the KRZR K1. That finish looks good and feels nice to the touch, but does show off dirt a bit more."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20070118-MobileBurnBlackJack.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />Mobile Burn always does a great job of reviewing devices and this is no exception. The review even makes some comparisons to the other popular QWERTY devices on the market. If you're still undecided about which QWERTY device to get, give this a read and it should set you straight. ;)
