Samsung’s i780 smartphone (pictured above) will be rebadged as the Samsung Epix when it’s released by AT&T, according to leaked documentation obtained by The Boy Genius Report, and not the BlackJack III, as previously thought. The authentic-looking image describes an AT&T sales representative training event for the 3G handset on October 23rd, making a fourth quarter release seem quite likely. With a 320 x 320 pixel screen (up from QVGA), GPS, and Windows Mobile Professional 6.1, the spiritual sucessor to the BlackJack II is decently equipped, although it certainly doesn’t rival such flagship models as the high-resolution HTC Touch Pro or Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1. According to the Boy Genius, a price point of around $200 is expected, after the rebate associated with signing a contract.
