Check out this video of the Cingular Samsung Blackjack. It’s one of the slickest commercials I’ve seen for a Cingular network phone. Tami just got the Blackjack for me as an early Christmas gift, and I’m loving it! Browsing at 3G speeds just rocks the turtle speed of my old Treo 650. The phone is also significantly slimmer and lighter at 4.5 by 2.3 by .5 inches and weighs a mere 3.5 ounces.
The included RSS reader which allows you to download news feeds from various websites is a great addition to the included Internet Explorer web browser. There’s also the bungled OZ Instant Messaging program that allows me to stay connected on AIM, MSN and Yahoo!
The phone’s 1.3-megapixel camera takes pretty nice photos and also does video recordings at 320 x 240px. The videos are pretty smooth even though they’re recorded at a low 9 frames/sec.
I have to say that the Treo and Blackberry killer has finally arrived, and it’s name is the Blackjack. Take a look at all of the features of the Samsang Blackjack on the Official Website, with features spokesmodel Katherine Heigl (Izzie from Grey’s Anatomy).

Very nice =D, hope it doesn’t turn out like one of RIM’s Blackberrys. If thats the case, hope Tami can easily snatch it away from you ;) Commercial was sweet too.

That’s quite some commercial. Kind of confuses me though.. what’s up with all those different looks of the phone? Is it a series or am I just seeing things?

I just read in the newspaper that the Blackberry is currently sueing Samsung for its copyright protection. I agree its a slight copy of the blackberry, but hey, the world is full of copycats of one another.

[...] I’ve always had the need to stay connected to the Web and E-mail while I’m on the go. This is especially true when I hit the mall with Tami and she’s taking forever to try on clothes! To pass time, I’ll flip out my Palm Treo Samsung Blackjack cell phone and surf some of my favorite blogs to catch up on the latest news, or I’ll pop onto Kineda to see if any new comments have been added to my latest postings.
