I just saw this on engadget. http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/25/v...ia-for-249-99/

I've wondered if I'd like this more than my touch pro.

I just ordered it! I cannot wait to get this.

I think this could be the iPhone killer!?!? The interface looks very interesting, 5 MP camera, 8 gig onboard and ability to expand via microsd...something the iPhone cant do. This will make this device more useable and expandable, whereas expanding the iPhone requires buying a new iPhone!

Will be here on Monday.

I never understood why people say an iPhone killer. Frankly, if you ask me, the iPhone's been dead. But I hope you like the Omnia, let us know. It looks interesting.

We need some serious rom development for the Omnia, its a great phone.
Its got the cool if its ringing put it face down to silent, just like the Diamond and Pro.

I am loving mine so far. Its very nice and feels great in your hand. Its a little thicker than the iPhone but not too much. All in all a very good phone. I am working on closing some Vogue GPS stuff, but once done my concentration goes to the Omnia.

I just have three MAJOR questions:

My HTC TP is locked down to no end.

I cannot get integration between outlook and the navigation, something my Mogul did without a complaint...if Sprint had service here, I might actually have stayed with them...

Will the Samsung have integration between outlook and the navigation?

Will the GPS be so locked that I cannot use other programs for the same purpose?

Will the BT stack aslo be crippled to the point of retardation and not hook to my laptop or desktop?

I started with the Storm, that is a disaster waiting for a lawsuit. VZ sent me an HTC Touch, nice, but the screen is damn small and I can't even get my home city into weather or navigate without copying my client data onto paper and then back into the same device...!!! That is a waste of effort and time.

So, now I wonder what phone has a touch screen, PDA, Nav, Bluetooth...and they work together...
