Combine that with the persistent rumors of a BlackJack II in the works, the fact that the popular BlackJack (whose model number is i607, coincidentally) is getting a little long in the tooth, and AT&T devices from Samsung typically end in "7," and, well, you can pretty much figure out the rest."</em></p><p><img alt="" border="0" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/500/spt/auto/1191934799.usr3.jpg" /></p><p>The FCC has proven time and time again to be a great source of information about upcoming devices. You can check out the documents for yourself <a href="https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits&RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&application_id=713001&fcc_id='A3LSGHI617'">here</a>. I wonder what features would be improved or added in version 2 of this hit Smartphone. I would like to see a faster processor, more RAM, and a GPS built-in. Maybe even WiFi too, but that's not too important for me. What would you like to see changed or added in the next release?</p>
