Question which of these three phones is the better one???

To start off here.
I would like to state that Iam located in Ontario Canada.
I currently have the HTC TOUCH with Bell , have had it for just under two years.
It has died on me again this passed saturday night cant unlock the screen.
Can not get beyond the pass word screen.
So bell is gonna let me out of my contract early no penalty fee.
It pays to complain right ha ha.
now i am stuck on three phones and could use some advice??
#1 Samsung Omnia
#2 HTC PRO 2 ( i think )
#3 Palm Pre ( which is not realesed here untill next thursday Aug 27 )
I want a good phone that is cool and hip ( A fun phone to use )
One that has a top notch LCD sceen and amazing video playback

If you like the Omnia why wouldn't you wait a month or so and get the Omnia 2? I love my Omnia and will be getting the Omnia 2 the day it comes out. I have heard good things from the four friends I know that own a Pre.

definately wait for the omnia 2, most people dont realise how much better it is compared to the d2/tp2 especially if you dont need a keyboard.
in terms of specs the Omnia II wins hands down, plus it actually handles video playback 2d/3d rendering very well. Unlike the tp2 and the white stone which have horrible video playback and 2d/3d rendering, thanks to HTC and qualcomm.
If you dont need a keyboard, which i dont think is necessary, the Omnia 2 is a great device, bigger screen than the tp2[3.7in compared to 3.7] , better processor Samsung S3C6410 667MHz processor, dedicated graphics accelerator [unlike htc phones], 5 MP, 2592 x 1944 pixels, autofocus, Dual Power LED flash, HD video recording 720x480@30fps, 5mp camera, 3.5mm headphone jack, 8/16gb built in storage, plus microsd card slot for up to an aditional 32gb, 256 ram, AMOLED screen.

The palm pre has a nice OS, but the hardware on it is horrible, breaks very easy and lots of defects. Plus the pre only has 4gb on storage and no microsd slot. There arent many apps out for it yet either
