Pissed me off as the optical mouse - works off the movement of your finger over the sensor worked great! I like this format and migrated from a palm (yes I gave up alot), and the size and speed are great. Anyway, I can't see why they didn't make it the blackjackIII??? Strange as I don't know anyone with a blackjack who doesn't like it for what it is - some do need more. Anyway, my 2 cents.

It has a touchscreen and everything. I just got my hands on one any its pretty sweet. I have to admit that despite the 624mhz processor is isnt as speedy as i'd like...

Do I really want to be pulling out a stylus, or messing with the "Optical Mouse" (Yes, I know you can switch it to be a standard pointer) seems I need another hand to use this, and the beauty of BJ2 is it's one handed approach - with the exception of Key-combos. Heck, even Function+key or Shift-key works with one hand, just press, press. Lastly the thing is heavier and thickerer (Dating myself there - the old "Chunky Candy Bar" commercials, remember? Anyway, I STILL keep staring at it and talking myself out of it, at least for a while - man, I LOVE my BJ2, and it just feels... disloyal. It's like getting rid of the old wife for a younger, firmer, sexier... oh shit, there I go again. Have to keep reminding myself - I love my Wife, I love my BlackJack II... I love my wife; I love my BlackJack II... Lastly, for folks that just can't resist... use a 3rd party reseller, AT&T partner, and you can get this thing for free any day of the week. I like Letstalk.com, they will let you have as many of these free as you want to start new lines for. Hmmm... maybe I could start a new line & have one on the side. Yeah, that's the ticket. I'll put her up in a nice apartment... oh wait, it's the PHONE I want on the side!!

Alas my current card-readers dont support SDHC so i'm loading up my 8 gigs microSDHC through the creeping USBv1.1 interface of the BJ2 *ugh!* ;-) CORRECTION…seems the BJ2 takes SDHC too – i bought FRI 24th at FRYS.com for 19 bucks [normally 40 USD] a 8 gigs microSD chip (only valid till TUE 28th), which is a SDHC version.
