Hi Chris,

I’m 100% sure that the Blackjack II connector is not compatible with the original Blackjack. BJ-II connector is slightly wider than the original BJ connector slot. As for the Ace I could not say. However in your video, it looks the same.

I placed a photo of both the BJ and BJ-II onto my web site comparing the two. The BJ-II is on the bottom. Note that the connector is wider.

Thanks for the clarification Monte. Are you sure about that connector? I am not 100% sure by any means, but it sure looks identical.

The LED is not there btw.

Thanks Chris,

I noted that the Mobilitysite was stagnant. Good to have it back and active!

One correction — The proprietary connector for BJ and BJ-II are not the same. I have both phones and different cables for both. Not sure why they did that. Now the BJ-II cables _may_ be compatible with the Ace Thanks for the first look – very cool.

One other note is the BJ-II has an LED in the upper right corner of the phone. Did the Ace have an LED?

Thanks for the first look – very cool.
