Samsung BlackJack II soon available from AT&T in pink and blue?
Flipping a tired handset with a couple of new color choices is the oldest trick in the book, and it looks like Samsung and AT&T are diving head first into a pink and blue abyss with a couple of new BlackJack II flavors. According to one of our tipsters, the two new models have begun arriving in AT&T stores across the country, both sporting a white front with either a pink or blue back casing. How cute. They’re apparently retailing for the same price as the black model, and should be available soon, though we’re not entirely sure when they’re officially going on sale. If pink and/or blue is your thing, however, you could probably track one down if you’re so inclined.
Thanks, Mike!
UPDATE: Added live pictures of both the pink and blue BlackJack IIs. Thanks Travis K. and Conrad!

Not only are they pink and blue but they have little polka dot on the back. They look like they are for little kids.

Yup they have been out for a week or so. They are definately different looking. The blue is almost tolerable, but the pink is pretty dang ugly.

in response to wether or not they’ll come with windows mobile 6.1…NO, it was the very first thing i checked when they hit our stores, and i was let down to see they still come with WM6 standard…and then i noticed that the box was branded with Telenav, and AT&T Navigator was not printed anywhere, and also, i actually saw theses SKUs listed in our inventory about 3 months ago, along with a silver BJ2…oh, not to mention, i’ve been tracking the samsung SGH-i907 in our stores SKU list, and i’ve been noticing some very interesting updates to the info in our system, such as cost, pricing, UPC # and max level, which usually indicates an very close launch date, so HEADS UP ya’ll! (for those of you who aren’t aware of what the SGH-i907 is, point your browser to http://www.samsungomnia.org/ or http://www.samsungomnia.com/ and check it out.)

i had the black one for a week and returned it namely cause its unbelievably slow and secondly because of windows rubbish 6.0 which is a disaster.

iPhone3G launches, the Bold is on it’s way and Samsung launches 2 terrible colors of an old phone. Typical Samsung. Lucky for them they make good TVs.

We all ready have them in our store.

Doesn’t this create any problems with the naming scheme?
A “Pinkjack I” is not a phone I would buy for the name.

They officially launch on the 21st.
But apparently some stores are already selling them.

SLOW news day. Slow news weekend, for that matter when the big story is the crapjack will now be available in pick!!
Chris B. is right. Would love updates on the e71.
The iPhone 3G vs. Bold face off was fun, but pardon the pun, it wasn’t comparing apples to apples.
I test-drove the iPhone 3G. It was a lot of fun. But as I wrote earlier, while the iPhone 3G could fly me to the moon, it couldn’t drive me around the corner to my office - metaphorically speaking.
The Thunder (Storm?) vs. iPhone 3G may be the better match.
And the e71 vs. Bold sounds like a great read. But I guess BGR’s position is what’s the point? They both seem like mirages at this point.

Looks like a sci-fi phone from the 90s. Is the big directional pad and enormous spaces between buttons really essential? Even at the expense of a relatively small screen?
You’d think the Blackjack would become obsolete by now…
