I just keep handing it to the BlackJack. The BlackJack's 1.3-megapixel camera and access to Cingular Video and Cingular Music clearly make the BlackJack the winner in this category, hands down. |

I have to give it to the BlackJack in this round as well. The 3G support means it can access Cingular Video and Cingular Music. Also, there's a 1.3-megapixel camera. |

Pound for pound, feature for feature, the Samsung BlackJack takes this round with its 1.3-megapixel camera and support for Cingular Music and Cingular Video. |

RIM BlackBerry 8800 |

While the BlackBerry 8800 has a music and video player, it doesn't have a camera or access to Cingular's stable of streaming video and audio services. |

Though some may love that the BlackBerry lacks a camera, we're talking about multimedia options here so I have to knock it a point or two. Also, having only EDGE support makes it pretty pokey compared to the 3G BlackJack. |

We're thrilled RIM has added multimedia capabilities to its devices, but the BlackBerry 8800 falls short with the lack of a camera as well as Cingular's 3G services. |
