I wouldn’t have believed it, if I hadn’t downloaded it w/ my own mouse. Windows Mobile 6 for the original BlackJack has been released. I’m waiting until this evening to upgrade my phone to it, but I’m excited to see how it turned out. I used the leaked ROM for about three months, until my phone went bad and was replaced. I didn’t feel like messing w/ the leaked ROM again so I used WM5.

I really missed some of the Exchange features in the leaked version, but hated the defaulting back to the home screen every time you didn’t keep it engaged. Also hated not having the long press to get the symbols on the keys.

Samsung released the update at 5pm EST today, and

Looks like it’s going to be another two weeks. Or, at least another two weeks to figure out how to keep the hype up. When they announce that BJ’s are shipping w/ WM6 I’ll start looking for the release to the rest of us.  

Until then, I’ll keep using this version of the beta release.

We might actually have an official release in three weeks. Amazing. I know the beta I’ve been using has grown my frustration levels when I’m emailing or texting. (not being able to press and hold a key to get the secondary letter/symbol gets old quick.)
