to me the glaring differences between these two devices, other than aesthetics, is in the Processor power and ROM/RAM. Q advertises 325 mhz Processor, 128 mb flash ROM, 64mb SDRAM. BJ advertises no Processor speed, 256mb ROM, 128mb RAM and doesn't specify "flash" and "SD" respectively. Does anyone know how his mumbo jumbo translates into real performance characteristics? Thanks!

Well, I have both! I have only used them each for about 2 days, but here are my impressions.

Blackjack II
The Blackjack II is a wonderful device. It is sleak looking, responsive, and the keys are nicely spaced, but the layout is a bit wierd. The Blackjack II features WM6, as well as the Moto Q. The only major drawback I felt with the device was that it seems as if it is made out of cheap plastic. You get the standard list of apps with the BJII which is a bit dissappointing.

Moto Q Global
The Moto Q on the other hand has a great feel to it. The keyboard is easy to use and I feel as if I could toss this device around a bit and it would take a licking no problem. The device is fairly responsive, but not the same as the BJII which response much quicker.

I personally went for the Moto Q as I don't run many apps on my device, just Goodlink, the weather, and some chat clients. Overall both devices would make a good addition no matter what you decided to purchase.
