Note: I believe there is another post looking for volunteer phones if you want to see development go faster.
Also, I had a HTC Touch Pro for two weeks and today I am heading to the Omina. Why? I will create a detailed post with comparisons later, but the Omnia is the direction I am heading for a few reasons. The HTC Touch Pro is great, but I can't stand the fingerprints, a wiggle in the keyboard and the rumored backlight dimming after a few months of use (meaning HTC has not perfected the higher resolution for longevity?? ). Overall, I am just glad PDA\Smartphones are making a come back in general. This means more users, more games, more uses and more fun!! Post away Omnia Users we have a long way to catch up to the HTC Touch Pro posts! |
You've got to love the camera on the Omnia. The viewfinder is nearly 30fps, and the pictures come out nice and crisp. They also save very quickly.
The Omnia felt really responsive in my hand--other than the borders of the touchscreen, which rendered the portrait on-screen keyboard nearly useless..
The landscape version worked fine, but covered a lot of the screen.
Sad to say, but I think Apple got the whole portrait keyboard thing down really well, on their first try. Their phone is wide enough to make proper inputs, and man, if you watch any of the speed-typing videos on youtube, it will blow your mind.
I just wish I could run WM on the iPhone. I would buy one in a heartbeat.
