Exactly my thought.

I was originally interested in getting the Diamond also. I go the Omnia instead and I think it was the right decision for me. The screen is bigger (3.2 compared to 2.

so actually has more room for information then the Diamond does.

The omnia has the capability to have 32GB (8GB internal storage and a 16GB mSD card) of extra storage while the Diamond from Sprint maxes out at 4GB.

The camera is a 5MP auto focus with LED as compared to a 3.2MP auto focus camera.

The Samsung is customizable but not as much as the Diamond. Hoefully Verizon will release a full ROM soon and we might be able to customize ROMs just like the Diamond.

Verizon unlimited data is $29.99 on this phone. There is a $45 plan also but you only need this if you want to use Verizons' wireless sync program.

While the screen is larger, the resolution on the diamond is better. Is the res on the Omnia even bad though?

LOL... 8gb + 16gb = 24gb...but yea this is an HTC driven site...so the Diamond is more customizable at the moment...

as far as resolution I really can't tell the difference, I have a friend that has the Fuze and maybe i'm blind but I don't see anything that would make me go the the Diamond or Touch pro

I have verizons unlimited plan for 129.99 which is 99.99 + 29.99 for the unlimited data... but I prefer Vzw's superior customer service and if u have the insurance they basically ask no questions, they just replace ur phone...

Well, I went up to the local vzw store today to check out the omnia in person and probably seal tho deal with it if I liked it enough.

Typically, verizon didn't have it there. So the wait continues. I've already been to sprint multiple times where I have played with the diamond. Yeah, it is a little thick, but I liked what I saw.
