Works great! It ran fine on my XP machine, I just had to download the driver from the weblink. They provide you with everything you need and a fine set of instructions.

P.S. TeleNav is awesome.

Wow, great news. A little late though. This phone with WM6 was announced in October. Thanks for being on top of things.

I think you're confusing it with the blackjack II, which was released in the fall.

We're talking about the i607 aka "Blackjack One"

I'm downloading as I am typing, my new Blackjack just came in the mail and i have to send the other one back. Since I havent done a single thing with it yet, I thought it would be a good time to put 6.0 on it.

I'll let you know how bad it sucks or if it's any better than 5.0

Update: Don't even try this with Vista as it requires ActiveSync, to make things worse, XP computers without certain service packs won't allow the update.

Windows is a f'ing joke, I am starting to hate Microsoft as much as I do Apple. Unfortunately my life revolves and depends on my computer so I am stuck with Gates shoddy products.

This is actually my first problem with Vista so far, and it's not Vista's fault. They were too lazy to write a sync program for this O/S. Samsung is a bunch of lazy Koreans.

What's your problem? I run a WM6 device just fine on Vista (and XP)

I bet it doesn't use ActiveSync.

After resurrecting an old XP notebook I had in the back room, reformating it with the restore discs that I miraculously still had, updating it with service pack 2, I was able to get the Windows mobile 5 disc that came with the phone to install, just so could communicate with it with ActiveSync.

I was able to run the update file that gives the Blackjack WM6, but I had to jump through hoops of fire to just find out how to boot the phone in reflash mode as the instructions don't tell you how.

The two things I noticed right away are the addition of TeleNav and Office Mobile. I won't use TeleNav because I have a Garmin Nuvi that I only use when I have to travel. The Nuvi required a $70 v8.0 map update a couple of months ago and is way quicker to use. I almost always store my hotel and airport destinations before I leave home so I can bring them up in favorites and select them quickly.

Office Mobile has Excel (dont use it), PowerPoint (dont use it) and Word, which I dont use very often.

All of the new icons are Vista like with smooth edges and the "busy" icon is the trademark animated aqua blue ring.

I think the RSS reader and MobiTV are new, I don't remember seeing those before. My dumb a** forgot to write down the Exchange Server domain and other settings before I put the old one back in the return box and sent it out, so I had to wing it from memory. That took a good half hour of trial and error.

The wakeup is slower than WM5 and the new splash screen let's you know right away that something is different.

That's about it, I will spend the next week finding out all the bugs and quirks.

I'll be sticking with Da_G's custom firmware, kthx.

Any link to the latest firmware by this guy?

Would like to try it out.

Thanx in advance.

Latz, SB
