Which to choose.. which to choose....

I currently have the vx6800 and love everything about it. my 2 year upgrade has just past and i am wanting to upgrade.

im pretty torn between the vogue (vx6900) and the new samsung omnia and the blackberry storm.
i ordered the blackberry storm because im undecided on what i want and the storm is on backorder so i wanted my name on one. but i dont know if i want to leave the WM OS yet and wasnt impressed with the reviews so i may be canceling that.

i know quite a bit about the vogue and know its pretty tried and trued..
but i cant find much info on the omnia. what typical programs for the mogul will work with the omnias screen size? dialers? touchflo? htc home plug? if none of this stuff is compatible it will turn me away a little. out of these three what would yuo guys go with and why? is the omnia just a little too "new" right now?

Re: Which to choose.. which to choose....

I'm a fan of HTC, and have own diferent htc since 2004. But the Vouge is not rival for the Omnia. A good match could be the diamond vs the omnia, because for the especificactions in the omnia, it is far superior than the vouge. Any ways i did play with both of them, and i keep with my Diamond. But have to say that the Omnia interface i quit impressive. The omnia interface compite face to face with the TF3d interface of the diamond.

Re: Which to choose.. which to choose....

man if you went to the omnia, it would be considered a pretty big upgrade.. i had a touch myself.. but the omnia has more memory, better procesor, better screen resolution, higher megapixel camera, and a bigger screen... so why wouldnt you make the switch? its still windows mobile so you can put just about every thing you have on your touch on it.. so i really dont understand why someone would stay with the touch if they can get an omnia. to be honest, id rather have the touch HD instead of a diamond.. but since sprint only could really offer a diamond for us i figured id jus go with the touch pro.. and i still use the onscreen keyboard 90 percent of the time.. but that external keyboard can come in handy (gettin off topic.. i know). but like i said earlier, you have a lot of options with that omnia.. the storm maybe nice and all that, but it wont compare to the omnia in the long run.
