Detailed review
This is one of the best phones I have ever owned, however in the spirit of full disclosure, I have not owned many phones! One of the things you will first notice about the Samsung Jack is how little it weighs. This is one of the first comments I receive from people checking it out, especially iPhone owners.

The Samsung Jack is equipped with WindowsMobile 6.1 which can be a little sluggish. It does tend to "think" between actions for longer than I would like. The Wi-Fi capability definitely comes in handy. It is very easy to carry in your front pocket and very easy to navigate and customize.

The proprietary charger/headphone jack can be a pain and the screen is quite difficult to read in bright sunlight. My old Blackberry 8300 was better in that respect.
