With Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0, Cingular BlackJack users have access to mobile versions of many of the familiar Microsoft features found on their desktops, such as Windows Media Player 10 Mobile, Internet Explorer Mobile and Outlook Mobile.

The BlackJack also includes the Messaging and Security Feature Pack for Windows Mobile 5.0, which provides support for Microsoft direct push technology to keep email, calendar, tasks and contacts always up-to-date, as well as security features such as remote device wipe and rich-security encryption features.

Offering a host of entertainment options from listening to music to viewing video clips to browsing the Internet, the BlackJack also includes access to Cingular Music - an integrated, on-the-go music experience by providing simple access to the most robust collection of music content available today, including XM Satellite Radio, which comes pre-loaded on the device. BlackJack users can easily access and enjoy 25 commercial-free music channels from XM Satellite Radio through the XM Radio Mobile service.

With Cingular Music, the new BlackJack connects users to music, such as full-track songs, music videos, ringtones, music news, MusicID, music chat rooms, streaming music and more. Cingular is the first U.S. carrier to offer subscription music to the handset, including music from leading online retailers Napster, Yahoo! and eMusic.

For the visually oriented, the BlackJack will feature Cingular Video, Cingular's on-demand streaming video service. With Cingular Video, users can watch a large selection of video clips of their favorite television shows, sports, news and weather, entertainment and premium content, including such hit HBO programs as "The Sopranos," "Entourage," "Sex and The City," and "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

In addition, the BlackJack provides users easy wireless access to business and personal email accounts through such solutions as Good Mobile Messaging, Microsoft direct push technology with Outlook Mobile and Cingular Xpress Mail. The BlackJack also offers over-the-air synchronization of calendar, contact and to-do lists and access to enterprise applications.

With an vivid color screen, wireless broadband capabilities, 1.3-megapixel digital camera that can record video and a full media experience with Windows Media Player 10 Mobile, customers can stay entertained with the BlackJack while on the go. It also includes a speakerphone and features Bluetooth version 2.0 with stereo headset support to enjoy music wirelessly.

Cingular customers who use the BlackJack can take the 3G-powered Cingular BroadbandConnect experience and get 3G performance in more than 130 markets in the U.S. They also can use the BlackJack seamlessly outside of BroadbandConnect coverage areas via Cingular's nationwide EDGE wireless data network as well as overseas in more than 115 countries.

The ultra-thin 3G device features a fully integrated QWERTY keyboard with a large high-resolution QVGA color screen. Built to satisfy music fans and business users, BlackJack includes a bevy of cutting edge features including:

- MP3 player and access to Cingular Music, the most comprehensive music subscription service of its kind ever offered by a U.S. wireless carrier, including access to online subscription music content from eMusic, Napster and Yahoo!
