After almost a year from when it was announced in the U.S., Samsung BlackJack II is hitting Australia through Telstra. The 3G-enabled, Windows Mobile Standard edition powered smartphone works on the operator’s Next G network and provides primarily business users with most of the tools they could need to stay productive while on the go. This includes Microsoft Push Email support, Mobile Office and the full calendar synchronization.
We’ve already talked about the BlackJack II’s specs. Let me sum it up — it packs a 2.4-inch QVGA screen, GPS receiver, 2 megapixel camera and a microSD memory card slot. Telstra’s Jack comes with the latest version of Windows Mobile (6.1), meaning the device should be more stable than the original, Windows Mobile 6 powered i617.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
