This is a great phone, I can personally vouch for that. I would really love to see it come to the US under AT&T or T-Mobile. There is a rumor swirling that it might indeed come to AT&T. I don’t know how strong that rumor is, but here is to hope. One of the reasons I couldn’t stick with the BlackJack I or II is the lack of a touchscreen. The BlackJack look and feel are awesome, but I just have to have my touchscreen. Well, aside from the cool navigation and the touchscreen, the Samsung SGH-i780 is more or less, a BlackJack II with Windows Mobile 6 Professional.

A blog on the other side of the pond called Mobile Tech Addicts has published good review of this phone that I had a chance to toy with a the Microsoft MVP Summit last March…

We all know that the Palm Treo 800w has a 320×320 screen, improving from the smallish 240×240 on previous Treo phones, but this device beat Palm to the punch.

Have a look at what Mobile Tech Addicts, Chris had to say…

This is without doubt the best Windows Mobile device I have ever used, and believe me when I say I have used a lot of them, from the innovative mouse D-Pad, brilliant Qwerty front facing keyboard, zippy menus and software extras its hard to find fault with it, but I will, the charging should be by mini USB, the headphone socket should be a standard 3.5mm, there should be Windows Mobile 6.1 update now and the stylus should not be telescopic. Apart from that I cannot think of anymore negatives and that is high praise indeed.
