Re: I Think I'm Coming Back...

I absolutely love my Omnia. Im not going to lie though, the sample video clip that played on my brother's Storm was a lot more vibrant than the way my Omnia plays videos, but other than that the Omnia has it beat, hands down. And video still plays really good on it, especially with Core player. I never watch movies on tv, I hate it for some reason, I only watch them on my phone. I love being able to watch a movie wherever I am.

As far as the battery, I carry a spare battery with me everywhere, and I have a charger that charges the phone and a spare battery at once so the spare is always charged. So my battery does die quickly, but I get push exchange email from my job all day, and use gps, install new stuff, literally play all day with my phone. My internet connection must be literally running nonstop all day, considering the things that I use it for. So keep that in mind, its hard for me to compare it to other phone's battery life because this is the first smartphone I ever had. I had the Dare before, but you cant do anything on that but talk and take pics, so I would barely use it.

Things just got better now that we have ROMs that unlocked the gps, and Adrynalyn found this little program that has helped alot of us get better and faster locks on it now. On top of that, now VZnav works on the leaked and cooked ROMS (it didnt before), so if you are stuck somewhere where you really need assisted gps, you have that as an option.

I love my phone, but then again, I bought it months ago. It's kind of past it's prime, I wouldn't blame you if you went for the Omnia 2 or something. I do not regret getting the Omnia though, and I plan to keep it at least another year.
