Getting a BJ :p
Hopefully tomorrow I will be going to get a BJ (Blackjack ).

It will be my first smartphone that I have actually owned and used as my own

Should be a big change from the PPC World I am so used to, but I cannot wait!

Needs a less suggestive title, but I guess that is the only reason anyone would read it.

Let me know how the BJ was... caz i have a dash,.. unlocked...

and it's a nice piece of device. i mean i do miss my ax some times, but it does everything...

I'm looking foward to the new 8525... i think i should have waited a bit longer..

funny thing... i have noticed that the screen on the 8525 sucks compared to the DASH...

if you can please do post in comparison.. i might was well look into the BJ.. but if the dash is the same... i like it better..

I have a blackJack and a 8525 and it is night and day. The BJ is really nice, but has limited outlook functionality. I LOVE the 8525!

Ya, I would love to go full PPC Phone but I just need something a bit smaller for now and a bit less expensive

The one thing I REALLY want from the Dash is Wifi. Wish the Blackjack had it but what do you do (again, $$$ keeps me from getting an unlocked dash).

I will report back once I get it. Like I said it is my first smartphone so not much to compare to but a bunch of full PPCs and normal cell phones. I have never had something in between like the WM Smartphones

Yes, I am still around and am not going anywhere, just been busy lately with not a ton of time to post. O, and sorry for the suggestive title but it seems the only way I would get some attention in a sub-forum with (including this one) 10 threads

Well, Did end up getting it today and so far it is great!

I am amazed at how small it is, just a bit bigger than my razr in height and width and pretty much the identical thickness. It is very peppy and there is no slow down when cruising through the menus.

I was also very impressed at how easy the Vista Windows Mobile Center picked it up via Bluetooth with my T61 laptop. It was up and running with in a few seconds and has been working flawlessly. So far I think the USB cable will be staying in the box!

Cannot really comment on much more yet as I just got it and sorry guys, no 3G in my area thus I did not sign up for a data plan ($20/mo for Edge is not appealing to me right now) so no comments on that either.

Yea I was pretty wierd about not having WiFi... but after have the phone and seeing how fast AT&T's 3G is... you never miss WiFi.

3G is like 1.2Mbps which is hella fast for a connection. Thats the same as connecting to a broadband through WiFi (broadband connection is bottlenecking the 11mbps wifi).

So in reality the 3G is like having WiFi all over town. Its really nice. The blackjack is TINY once you get it. I actually use the extended battery because the phone with the standard battery is so thin that its hard to hold on to.

I'm really impressed with my blackjack. Right now I'm running WM6 and its running great. I have absolutely no problems with it at all. Its fast and reliable and does everything very well for not having a touch screen.

I have found the Landscape QVGA screen daunting when it comes to finding compatible games that support the 320x240. For the most part any of your apps will automatically scale.

I actually never use my Axim anymore other then using it to run my GPS program. I'm half tempted to test out Route 66 GPS software for my blackjack, and possibly sell my x51v completely... any offers?

x51v
Very well kept. Always in protective case. No scratches. Always had a screen protector which is washable and has a life-time warranty.
1gb SD card
8gb Microdrive
A17 (Running nicely) WM6 will be out in a few days
Travel USB-Axim Sync Cable
Axim-Serial DB9 Serial Connector with power plug
IR Fold up Keyboard

I'd say at least $350

ya, 3G is really nice...but very limited in which cities have it.

When I was in NY over the summer for a couple days I tried it and it is amazingly fast...
