Re: Do you think omnia 2 is losing its hype??

I tried out the Imagio at a Verizon store and I was blown away my the 480x800 resolution and the screen's responsiveness. It blows the Omnia out of the water. We know the Omnia II's screen is fantastic and the same res, and if the screen sensitivity is just as good as the Omagio then the Omnia II will be absolutely amazing. Even though more recently I've been caught up in all the Droid hype, the Omnia II is still going to be a very strong option for me.

EDIT: Also, I don't know what you mean about "it's 200MHz less than the Droid", but the Omnia II is actually 800Mhz and the Droid is 550Mhz. That being said, the Omnia II is based on the older ARM11 CPU and the Droid is based on the ARM Cortex v8 (same as the iPhone and Pre), which from what I read is like 40% faster clock-for-clock than the older ARM11. So in the end they should perform similarly. At least that's my understanding of it all...
