Samsung JACK i616 in Merlot color is now available through Rogers (NYSE: RCI) Wireless. The strange thing, though, is that the device on the website has Fido branding. Ok, we know Rogers is the owner of Fido, but why on earth they used the image of the device with Fido’s logo is beyond me. It’s not a big mistake, if it’s a mistake at all on their part, it’s just… strange.

Anyway, now when the JACK is Windows Mobile 6.1 compliant, Rogers will ship the smartphone with the latest version of Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT)’s mobile OS. The price is $24.99 on a way-too-long 3-year plan… Here’s a link to the Rogers’ website where you can get all the details.
