Samsung BlackJack I607 Unlocked GSM PDA Phone
The Samsung BlackJack™ was designed from the chips up for one purpose -- to make you look smart. As its start-up program, you’ll get Windows® mobile 5.0, so you’ll never be far away from the operating system you’re familiar with. A full QWERTY keyboard makes it easy as 1-2-3 for you to send text messages or e-mails to your friends and colleagues. There’s a time for work, and a time for play; when it’s time for play, use the 1.3 megapixel camera to take memorable pictures of your weekend outings. This Samsung phone also comes with Bluetooth® 2.0 wireless technology, making sure you’re up-to-date with the latest wireless connection. You’ll get 65MB of built-in memory, but you can also insert your microSD card for additional storage space. All in all, the BlackJack™ will keep you organized, in touch, on the job and looking good. You're feeling smarter already, aren't you?
Windows® Mobile 5.0
Because you work with Microsoft applications, the SAMSUNG BlackJack does, too. Blackjack includes an application to allow users to view MS Word®, Excel® and PowerPoint® documents. Dare we say it? Yes, we'll say it: the SAMSUNG BlackJack is a mini computer.
1.3 Megapixel Camera
The SAMSUNG BlackJack™ is a true smart device that also comes with a smart camera. With the BlackJack, you get a full 1.3 megapixel camera with 4 x digital zoom to give you flexibility and options when on the move for that next picture perfect moment. The camera also comes with brightness adjustment features and much more. Taking a picture from your mobile device has never been this easy!
QWERTY Keyboard
When using email you will need a full, thumb-friendly QWERTY keyboard - just like the one you'll find on the SAMSUNG BlackJack™.
microSD™ Memory Slot
If the 64 MB RAM and 128MB ROM isn't enough, the BlackJack comes with a microSD™ memory slot. In other words, you'll have unlimited storage for your music, photos, videos - everything.
Multimedia Player
The SAMSUNG BlackJack features both Cingular Music™ and Cingular Video™. Which means the BlackJack gives you a singularly amazing multimedia experience.

Pros - easy to use, inexpensive, good battery for a smart phone
Cons - the screen broke within a week from a 5 inch drop to the cupholder in my car. I have it taped up and a screen cover on it to hold it together. If you buy this do what you can to protect the screen and do not drop it!

I would recommend this phone as a great basic texting phone (for today's standards, that is) and consider all the other features a nice extra but not rely on them and attempt to use this as a 'real' smartphone. Mine worked out of the box with my AT&T sim card and also with a foreign sim card I have. I expect to use this phone when traveling out of the country. I modified the battery cover and now comes out more easily with out being too loose. battery charge gives me about 3 full days with light use (mainly texting).
Great phone but has several small design problems

I previously had the BlackJack II, but prefer the interface on this one. I love the side scroll wheel and cannot figure out why Samsung abandoned it. I also had difficulty removing the battery cover and scratched it. The rekease is actually to the right of the button indicator. Have gotten the extended battery and new cover, which increases the POOR battery life and now, no more scratches. I only wish that it had 802.11 capabilities, but is is, after all, an older phone.
Stay clear of this one

I got one for my wife.
Pros:
SIM card went right in and worked.
Works great with ActiveSync.
Cons:
Battery life is horrendous.
Battery cover is next to impossible to get off.
Upgrade to Windows Mobile 6 is available from Samsung, but you have to use either Windows XP or Vista 32-bit to get it onto your phone.
Mine was missing the correct cable and the one I was told I'd be receiving never arrived - I just got my own - required for the upgrade, BTW.
My battery was scratched and I have to say, I'm wondering if it was used.
It locked up on my wife today, and she left it for me to deal with. I checked, apparently others have had the lockup problem, as well.
Had to pry the battery cover off and yank the battery to fix that.
Consider something else, especially if you're the one who has to provide technical support for it. Had I not upgraded the OS and scratched the battery cover trying to get it off, I'd return it in a HEARTBEAT.
Not bad but not great

Screen is difficult to read at times. Looks like a toy. Could not get phone activated with Bell Mobility as it was not on their list of accepted phones. Eventually found a work around but not all phone plan features active. Phone is easy to use and easily upgradeable to Win Mobile 6.0. Nice features but would shop around a bit more next time.
