The Samsung i617, also known as the Samsung BlackJack II, is a smartphone that runs on the Windows Mobile 6 operating system. In addition to making phone calls, the phone also allows you to manage your contacts, view your calendars, browse the web and edit Microsoft Office files. The phone utilizes a 3G wireless data connection, which allows it to quickly send and receive data from a cell phone provider. There are many instances where you may be required to disable the 3G connection, such as on an airplane. The phone allows you to temporarily disable the 3G connection without turning off the phone, so that it still may be used without a data connection.
