I've been following the release of the Omnia for the last few weeks and was impressed with the initial reviews of the device. However, after reading the latest reviews of people who have lived with the device for a month, they have been not nearly as positive. The main issues I've been seeing is that the phone is "buggy" (this could just be a WM thing), the screen resolution sucks (compared to the HTC Touch Pro and BB Storm), and the 128mb of memory is not nearly enough to push this device to it's full potential.

I have been using the XV6900 since it came out last April and overall am not happy with the device. I can't stand that I have to use the stylus when closing apps and at other random times (I have large fingers). I also hate that I am constantly entering wrong buttons because the keyboards are so cramped. I can't tell you how many times I have sent a text with nothing in it because I hit send by accident when trying to shift between the XT9 default. I would love to just delete XT9 from the device all together, but so far have not found an easy solution to do so.

I am up for an upgrade in a few weeks and have been leaning towards the Omnia or the Storm. I would prefer to stay with a WM device as my office does not support BB devices. Only two people in my office use BB devices and when something goes wrong they are basically SOL and need to figure it out on their own.

I have seen numerous post on this site and others comparing the Omnia to the iPhone and BB Storm (which I think is unfair as they are running different OS and they have different "core" users than most WM devices. I would like to see some comparisons and opinions of the Omnia compared to other current Verizon WM devices (i.e. XV6800, XV6900, Touch Pro, Samsung Saga).

If anyone currently owns the Omnia and has used any of the other Verizon WM devices, please post your thoughts here.
