My thinking is that if it comes with 6.5, it'll be the RTM version without all the 'coolness' of the newest builds. Plus it'd be chalked full of sammy and vz software. You wonderful chefs wouldn't be able to make ROM's for it until a leaked beta ROM or official update was released. If it came with 6.1, they'd probably release an update to 6.5 fairly soon. Just my two cents...or possibly just one cent!

VZ never has anything up-to-date out of the gate, so it's a no go for WM6.5. I wish I'm wrong though. Also, what good is this phone if we can't have a cooked ROM ?

its already been confirmed 6.5 for Omnia 2.


since its comin out after the WM 6.5 update thats why it wont have it on the phone right away.....already been confirmed

Yeah, so I totally have an e-boner right now. Too bad I've only had my Omnia since April. Maybe I can convince my wife to join my family's plan (my mom has one, I've been on it since I was 17) and get an Omnia 2. She doesn't like my phone, so I could "let it break", and have it replaced with a lesser phone, then make her get the Omnia 2, and swap the activation on them...

the in box contents from engadget mentioned a stylus. is it a key-chain again or is there a female slot for the stylus in the phone. not a deal breaker. just curious. never use it anyway.

wifey gave me the green lite

edit: is there a front camera too? I see the light sensor on the right, but what is the square black "thing" to the left of the earpiece?

Sorry to disappointed you guys but latest rumor has it:

Verizon is waiting for Samsung to officially launch it first.
Verizon is looking to launch sometime in mid-October.
It will launch on Verizon with Windows Mobile 6.1.
Windows Mobile 6.5 will be in a ROM update, but not for a while.
The Omnia II is launching elsewhere with Windows Mobile 6.5. <---This stinks

Again, I wish I'm still wrong.
Well, if we have a kitchen for this then no problem.

<sarcasm> Got to love Verizon. <sarcasm>

Let's find another way to piss people off by not doing something that makes sense. Oh well, I guess I shouldn't expect anything less of them. That new HTC device is looking better.

[greenskeeper805]

Which HTC device is that?

[brandogg]

I would guess HTC Leo. Even if that's not what he's talking about, the Leo is awesome.
