The BlackJack III is on the way, it seems and while it may not be on the same page as the BlackBerry, it is definitely interesting and definitely sports major improvements from the BlackJack II.  

Also known as the Samsung Epix, the BlackJack III has a touchscreen, WiFi and other features you’d expect on a device in order for it to be called a smartphone. But the real gimmick here is the optical mouse.

Apparently, this is the first smartphone to feature an optical mouse. How on earth could this work, you might be wondering? Well, you can think of it like turning your current mouse upside down and using your finger to move the curser around. Yeah, kind of weird, but worth talking about. You can get the Samsung Epix, BlackJack III, whatever you want to call it now for $199 with a two year contract.
