you can blame Samsung if you like the the fault is yours, for jumping in the pool with without checking the temperature, are you an impulse buyer? "oh this looks nice....lemme buy it even though I don't know anything about it"
You can do that with little flip-phones, but why pay 2-3 hundred dollars for something without doing ur homework on it...from reading ur last post it must be because you have money to throw away...
There is NO such thing as a perfect phone, I know plenty of Iphone users, its a love, hate relationship, and I see things on there that are cool but I doubt WinMo can do...at the same time they lack the ease we enjoy in modifying our phones, a landscape keyboard, removable memory,
I believe the issue with flash is the opera Mobile browser...I installed a version of Skyfire that works on my omnia and it plays youTube, yahoo video, even silverlight video... I can go to myspace and it plays the music and slide shows...
but if you feel like dishing out the 175 to get out of ur contract, go ahead do us a favor and spare us your belly aching, if you don't have the patience to wait for the support to catch up to the technology please return your Omnia, so someone who appreciates a superior phone can have it,
its no secret the Omnia has flaws, but I knew that going in, but I also know someone will figure out a way around the bugs...and eventually Samsung will develop a fix to a few of the problems some issues may never be fixed, that is so they can get us to shell out some more cash when the next version of the omnia comes out...

The one thing I really liked about this board was that there were not rabid fanboy’s like on many iPhone forums. I could ask a question, get an answer and engage in a civil electronic discourse. Disappointment yet again.
pdub73 lease brush the sand out of your vagina. I am stating my "opinion" about a freaking phone. We are not fighting over the same woman for Pete’s sake. If you don’t like what I have to say a simple:
1. “Maybe this phone is not for you.”
2. “Sounds like it’s been more trouble than its worth. This has not been my experience, but so is life.”
3. Ignore me and continue to help those more deserving.
This I can accept. The man-crush and hurt feelings are a bit much – over a phone. Besides, I have never bashed anyone here over the inordinate levels affection I read displayed over an electronic device.
I have already thanked people on this board for continuing to help me. I am not unappreciative. I am $175, 2 glitches and 2 months away from a “possible” switch because I have already taken the phone back 4 times (in a month)! Missing pixels, faulty rotation with motion sensor, memory storage full issues (which could have been negated if just ONE of the numerous Samsung tier 3 reps had ever heard of the problem before and assisted me properly).
I have wasted gas money and time. More importantly I have spent over 3 hours on the phone waiting to be “helped” by VZN and Samsung “experts” who gave me faulty solutions to most of my issues. I had to
seek out boards like his to find answers on my own. Most of you have not experienced these problems (from what I’ve read) or already knew what the solutions were. I didn’t and the initial resources that were available to me VZN and Samsung tech support didn’t know either.
I went on Youtube, Phonedog, Pocket Now, cNet and read many reviews before I got this phone and NO ONE chronicled all these glitches. I did my homework from what, at the time, was known to me.
So if you would kindly get off the high horse, or in this case, the pony which you are looking down upon me, I would greatly appreciate it.
If any of you, from this point on feel that I am not appreciative of all the tips and knowledge supplied or given to me directly it will be your mistake. If there is anyone else who has a problems with me stating my “opinion” about what I expect in a phone or “my” experiences with a phone express them, but I don’t intend on having to defend my “opinion”. Thank you
