My BlackJack


Finaly a phone with usability

Ok I am not going to get into the PC is better than the MAC or iPod is better than Zune - All I know, is that I finally have phone that gives me what I need (for business) and gives me what I want (for pleasure).

For business I get the tools I need - I can sync it to my PC / MAC for contacts and email - Calender, and alarms very nice
for pleasure I have a decent 1.3 megapixle camera / video recorder - java capability for the games - space to install fun apps like weather and the like, and if I need more I have a MicroSD slot to add an additional 2 gig of storage -

So why am I so happy -
Bluetooth - now allot of phones have bluetooth and yes they are starting to get the picture that Bluetooth done right makes the phone so much Safer and Usable.
I had a Motorola L7 and for the most part it pissed me off - no A2DP (without getting to technical this means that you can send music to a Bluetooth headset) A2DP allows your phone to now server two purposes for which one might require audio ( the phone - and - music) The BlackJack Has got Bluetooth implemented almost to a T - The only thing - and I do mean the only thing that the Blackjack lacks (right now) is native voice dialing - In my opinion voice dialing is what makes hands free - hands free.

At first, when I started using the Blackjack I needed to be tetherd to a power outlet or computer to charge it, but after some research I found a link to get a new extended battery for free from Cingular (AT&T) - which to their credit - they came through. One other issue I have a first was that the phone didn't seem to fit any cases out there - again after some research I found a great case made specifically for the BlackJack that really is nice. Today I just picked up a Generic armband "ipod" holder that fit the phone perfectly, and that combined with my Bluetooth stereo "ear bud style" headset I feel truly WireFree it;s so awesome.

If anyone would like to see some of the sites that I research and find to be usefully - send me an email wirefree1@gmail.com
