FCC approves Samsung Blackjack

As we mentioned last month, the Samsung i607 cellphone ought to be available real soon, and this news is confirmed as the FCC has recently approved the i607. Also known as the Blackjack, Samsung hopes to capture some of the smartphone market and cannibalize the Motorola Q’s sales in the process. Since the Motorola Q does have its fair share of issues, where the chief offenders are sluggish navigation and a pathetic battery life, it shouldn’t be too hard for this Windows Mobile-powered smartphone to open a can of whoop ass. Expect to see the Samsung i607 appear first from Cingular. Pricing details are currently unavailable.
