Cracking Open Samsung's BlackJack II

That electronic leash around your neck just tightened a notch; Samsung has released the BlackJack II.

In addition to being a cell phone and mobile email machine, the BlackJack II features 3G network connectivity, Bluetooth wireless functionality, a 2.0 megapixel camera and integrated GPS - all in a package about the size of ½ deck of playing cards.

After cracking open the BlackBerry Curve a couple of weeks ago, I thought that this would be a walk in the park. Little did I know.

The BlackJack II comes in AT&T's standard orange, blue and white packaging that lets it stand out on the shelf with a little punch.
