Guest Bohica Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Thanks! Glad to hear about WiFi but plz don't tell me thats the ant in the pic?!?!?! Are they dropping BT from the BJII or is it default? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mysterious Caveman Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 plz don't tell me thats the ant in the pic?!?!?! Are they dropping BT from the BJII or is it default? That's not the antenna, haha. it's the stylus. What I see in that picture is a Samsung i780 which is already available (but ridiculously expensive). It has BT.

Guest hagan92 Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 No doubt it'll have bluetooth...it HAS to have bluetooth...haha hagie92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dshosu Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Don't tell me it's touch screen.... Looks like I might be getting a BB Bold then... I want something that's not touch screen and some kind of navigation that's not a digital pad (like the scroll wheel on the BJII or the the track ball on the BBCurve2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jackpot Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Thanks for this share, but I wouldn't like using and or Loosing a stylist on Any phone...I hope someone eventually makes cell phone as BiG as a small laptop...we can Always use Our BT headsets in case we ever want to talk on it...

Guest krinkle442 Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 So, anyone heard anymore news or maybe an actual date for the Windows Mobile 6.1 update for the Blackjack II? Just curious and stuff... It looks pretty good. I may be getting a bit antsy, even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rbc41 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Can you say PHOTOSHOPPED??? Take a look at the keyboard. Look at where the numbers are. Yes, that's right - just like the annoying layout of BJI. They changed the layout in BJII so that all the numbers are together when dialing a phone#. Why in the h311 would they go back? That pic is a fake, plain and simple. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hagie92 Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Actually, this a phone that is already available. No photoshopping here! I doubt the BJ3 will look exactly like that, it may not have the touchscreen, but I guess we'll just see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest H.Flores Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) This is what another site is saying the BJIII will look like- so pretty much like the picture above only difference is they are saying the OS will be 6.1 Pro Edited July 15, 2008 by H.Flores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jbone Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 ...only difference is they are saying the OS will be 6.1 Pro Another difference are the keyboards. It looks like rbc41 may be right after all (that the pic attached by the OP is a Photoshopped fake). -J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mysterious Caveman Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Another difference are the keyboards. It looks like rbc41 may be right after all (that the pic attached by the OP is a Photoshopped fake). -J no they're not. they're both the samsung i780. the first pic with the bj1 layout is the pre-production of the i780, but the final revision has the bj2 layout. just look up the i780. it's been out for months. i doubt they're going to make the i780 the bj3. here's a link to the i780: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i780-2124.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest xKnight Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Sure I can do that. But my WM6.1 is Brazilian portuguese, is it good for you? If so, I will try to do it this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
