Samsung Blackjack Phone through Cingular?

A co-worker of mine has one, he loves it. I setup his e-mail on it, it was pretty easy to do, and it's simple for him to check. I was impressed with the small form factor and the ease of typing. Overall I thought it was pretty slick.

Pros:
Nice Size for thickness
3G Data
Lots of goodies - music, camera, internet, email, phone all performed well in one device
Bluetooth - A2DP profile - so you can listen to music with BT music headset
Comes with extra battery (You will need it see one of the Cons)

Cons:
Poor Speaker Quality for Music and calls on speakerphone
Bad battery life (but it does come with an extra battery)
QWERTY Keypad is small but spaced well enough to manager
Lack of WiFi but thats more of a personal preference deal
WM5 - I have a slight problem with the OS, it is slow and not very user friendly

Overall I would recommend it, the CONS are easy to get past considering you get an extra battery, you will probably buy a bluetooth headset so wont use the speakerphone, you can get used to the smallish keypad, who needs WiFi with 3G data and the WM5 issue is more of a personal preference.

Just my opinion, which is worth the paper I wrote this response on.

I have it and like it a lot. The only thing I am not happy about is the lack of WiFi. You should get a nice SD for it. I have tons of songs on there, but you can put whatever you want on there not just songs.
