Yesterday, I got my hands on Sprint’s 1st Windows Mobile 6.5 device, the Samsung Intrepid. It’s Sprint’s replacement for the Ace and is very similar to AT&T’s Samsung Epix. It was announced a little over a month ago by Samsung and Sprint. It runs Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional, meaning that it’s got a touchscreen. This makes this phone 1up on the Blackjack I and II and really makes the device quite usable. I have had some time to give it a spin and I really like it. I am sure most of you know how much I loved the Blackjack and Treo 750 with their front facing QWERTY keyboards. Check out this video and standby for the software tour in a day or two.

Thanks for watching!

    Hi Chris, I just wanted to mention that the proprietary Samsung sync/charge connector that you mentioned in your video walkthrough isn't really proprietary. If I'm not mistaken, it's a micro-USB port. As an example, you show a Treo; and the next few Palm devices (800W, Treo Pro, and Pre) all use micro-USB connectors.
