Samsung Omnia?

natstally · 26-07-2008, 21:14

Hi, I currently have the Viewty which i quite like but i'm slightly overdue an upgrade now and have been looking at my options.

I would have maybe liked an iPhone but not at those contract terms/prices

so i'm after another touchscreen. Not keen on the Tocco really but i've seen the Omnia and it looks really good, Great video playback options, great storage, great camera etc although it seems like it could be a bit too business phoney for my needs (txting, calling, internet, video, camera) as it's got WindowsMobile but that's not the point...

Just wondered if anyone knew when it's going to be available (i've read late August but dunno) or which networks will get it (currently on O2 but willing to move) and any prices etc

Also, i've read bad things about Windows Mobile but what's actually wrong with it?

Thanks for reading

I've heard it is a case of:

Good phone, slow software.

My friend has one and says it is great, although he is a bit like that with everything new.

is that the same with the camera as well? I have an n95 and the one thing that does my head in about it, is the painfully slow camera
