A formidable array of devices from the looks of it. It will be very interesting to have a fair comparative review between Omnia HD on S60 Touch 5th Edition and one on Windows 6.5, which as this site indicates does not mean an upgrade. In my view, the soon to arrive S5600, as a very affordable 3G device, could well sell over the medium term phenomenally, perhaps even outselling the tocco slide S8300, and becoming the browsing companion for hundreds of thousands. Why? Because in most markets, particularly developed ones, people already have a multimedia phone and will want something to add to their collection. What the s5600 for the first time is affordable touch screen browsing if the price is competitive enough.

Omnia HD with WinMo 6.5? Does this mean Samsung is ditching Symbian S60???

One of them will be 8mp with 3x optical zoom INNOV8 upgrade (symbian) and another one 12mp feature phone. Looks promising.

Darn, and I was ready to switch boat to an HTC Firestone. Samsung got me back ready for an upgrade finally from my Omnia.

I can now offer my Omnia to my wife. We will be both with Samsung (that is if the Omndia HD is using WM).

I'm really starting to like Samsung as a cellphone manufacturer. And, it's good to see them driving the industry forward with well built phone that are also feature packed.
