I hope this is the next Blackjack


The Samsung i780 cellphone (with GPS) was first spotted on September, and at that time there wasn't many information available about the device, but yesterday Samsung finally let all the details be known during an announcement in London. With that being said, the i780 integrates 3G, HSDPA, GPS, and Wi-Fi connections in only one device, which makes it the top-notch cellphone of the i series. The TFT touchscreen that measures 2.6-inches gives a 320x320 pixels resolution, and features the Windows Mobile 6 Pro as the operative system. One cool detail is the inclusion of a mouse, that makes the stylus become part of the past. Additional features include a full QWERTY keyboard, a 2-megapixel camera plus a VGA lens located on the front so you can do video conferences, a microSD memory card slot, bluetooth, a MiniUSB 2.0 port, and an expected release date on January, for €500, close to $720.

3G, Wi-Fi, touch-screen, wireless mouse and the ability to video conference?! That's impressive!!!

But $700 + is going to be a tough sell.

Yeah, I have to agree with Nelson, if I'm gonna pay that much, I'm gonna get an iPhone.

Yeah, but unlike the iPhone, AT&T would pick up some of the tab on this phone. The original Blackjack was about the same price when it came out if you didn't get it with the 2 yr plan.
