Re: Thinking about the Omnia
My sister in law was in town this weekend & is jonesing for a new phone. She was sold on the enV 3 (she has an enV 2 right now). I gave her my unactivated Omnia hooked up to Wifi to play with for a while and now she is torn.
Took her to the local Verizon store & played with all the new phones. After messing with all the new stuff, I realized there isn't anything out right now that makes me "have to" upgrade to the latest & greatest. Almost everything offered in these new phones is already available on this site & XDA. My touch pro was running sense 2.5 this weekend (until I flashed back to my stable ROM), & my Omnia is rocking SPB mobile shell 3.5 right now. Even though the Omnia isn't bleeding edge anymore, this is still a powerful smart phone.
Verizon is selling the Omnia on their web site for $15 today. That is an amzing deal for a phone that powerful. If you don't need to have the newest gadget then go for it. I paid damn near $200 for this phone the day verizon released it....and even though I prefer my Touch Pro right now, I could easily switch back to my Omnia for the rest of my contract & have no regrets (and just might if I keep going through TPs...keyboards keep dying).
Just my 2 cents....This thing is a steal
