I rang 02 today here in the UK and asked when they are releasing the Samsung i8910, guess what they said? they said they have NO plans to stock it at all!

WHAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

looks like i will be getting the Nokia N97 instead then, mind you, seeing as they wont change the Audio Codec instead of using their current "garbage" - i guess it really doesn't matter

so, upgrading my mobile phone from Nokia N95 8GB to a Samsung Omnia HD is pointless! the video and audio are very good on my Nokia, i really wanted this NEW Samsung phone, but with an AMR Codec, what the hell is the point now? shame on you Samsung, how much money will that save you, great screen and that is it! absolutely terrible

Its not that clear the video for a HD handset its a bit of a disapointment really, the same quility as VGA and not even 30 frames per second,

very disapointing.........

looks horrible,the screen and response issues and the menu layout is plain and unexciting,the hd capabilities are not quite what they were supposed to be,think this phone got way too much hype in its initial release stage

the phone is available on Orange Network here in the UK !!
but have they fixed the Poor Audio Problem?
i guess we will have to wait and see when people start sending them back as Faulty to Orange!

So did they fix the audio in the final unit or what?
Its an amazing phone and almost the perfect phone expect the CRAP Audio Quality when you record videos
