Samsung BlackJack SGH-i607
Some very basic questions - comparing smartphones
I'm finally looking to integrate my cellphone with my pocket pc. I've used an ipac for years and I'm very used to a pocket pc. What I use the most is the outlook calendar and while I also want internet and email access, I want to make sure that the smartphone will easily sync with my outlook and that it will be easy to schedule appointments on the phone throughout the day.

I also wantthe phone that is the most simple and the most straightforward.
Thanks so much.

Hope this helps.

Yes, you will have to really make sure how you're going to use this device. People bad mouth the Blackjack for only one reason, it is not the device for them. And I don't know how people complain about the lag on the BJ. Never had that problem. So to start, the BJ being a smart phone does not have a touch screen and does not have the capabilities of editing excel or word documents. Pocket PCs do. If you don't care about these, then this is a ...
