and is there any software that would allow flick scroll throughout the windows mobile interface? if there is, this would kill the HTC Diamond! and is samsung upgrading the RAM?, 128mb is okay, but if your a power user, then you might find yourself running out of rom!

Is there a youtube application for this phone? and what's the effect of the WQVGA on picture quality? software or hardware limitations?

GPS settings program port 7, hardware port 9 9600 baud rate and Garmin Xt will find it.

What's with gsmarena stating that, "Standing at 112 x 56.9 x 12.5 mm, Samsung i900 Omnia is on the hefty side." and "It looks sturdy and feels nice in hand, the hefty size aside."

I don't remember gsmarena saying that about the iPhone?

Anyway, this phone rocks, heftyness aside :)

Does this also support Blackberry connect? If yes, this is what I am buying since my company supports only Blackberry connect and not push email through Windows Mobile

This is definitely better than iphone 3G imo. The only con is the crash-prone Windows mobile OS.

The samsung omnia is a great phone but it has it's faults.
1: the type pad can be a pain when texting, type 1 letter and another letter comes up.
2: The camera is...Pants! I got the omnia and my girlfriend has the toco, the tocos pictures were by far alot more crisp. The omnia was either dark, or to bright with alot of noise. Could never get it spot on.
3: When using the camera or texting alot or just using the phone, it gets very hot...NOT GOOD.
4: the sound quality when playing music was...just (ok) with no audio adjustment. (well i could'nt find anything)
5: The ear phones that came with the phone are just......Crap! you need big ears to use them, they are enormous haha i used the ear phones from the toco, loads better.
6: their are times that you will need the stylus, which also can be a pain because you either have to tie it to the phone or put it in your pocket, nowhere for it to slot into.
Other then that, it's a great phone.

> In reply to [deleted post]Ok everyone in the UK, I have called all the major networks and these are my findings

Orange--Called them early in August, cheerful guy on the phone, asked him for the omnia, he tried to sell the N95 8 GB, I nagged him so he finally said 11 th aug, i called up today on 11 aug, the guy on the phone did not know what an omnia was....SHOCKING

O2---Politely said they have no idea on when the phone was coming.

Vodafone---Confirmed 24th Of Aug, but said could again change.

T-Mobile---Said she had not heard of that one , asked a manager he was also surprised.


VIRGIN & 3--- I did not bother.

Now for some good news it is available at http://www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk for 35£ a month 18 month contract on vodafone. the phone is free. it is also available on a website called expansys. (http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=171921)

Hope this helps...
