Samsung i617 (Samsung BlackJack II) Review at MobileTechReview
MobileTechReview has a review of the Samsung i617 (Samsung BlackJack II) and writes, “A welcome, though not earthshattering upgrade to the BlackJack. As the adage goes, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it; and the original BlackJack was an extremely popular phone thanks to its low price, slim design and power. The II adds features that keep the BlackJack competitive in 2008: GPS, Windows Mobile 6, 2MP camera, more memory and a single slim high capacity battery. The phone appeals both to business power users and heavy texters thanks to its QWERTY keyboard and relatively low price, but it has the features power users crave (minus WiFi). Whether you choose the BlackJack II, Moto Q9 Global or Pantech Duo, you won’t go wrong. AT&T’s MS Smartphone lineup is impressive and the BlackJack II is one of the most pocketable phones with a front-facing QWERTY keyboard on the market.”

I agree with your summary, the phone is indeed good, but lacks some polish on a few of the components. Overall though I found this phone to be a great communication device with a lot of bang for the buck.
I’ve got sample pictures and videos from the phone here as well as a few size-comparison pictures:
