I dont like the touch player either so i just downloaded the program called "FlipSide" which is ten times better with higher resolution artwork.
There are tons of programs out there for windows mobile. Take advantage of that.

If you change the UI to spb mobile shell the phone is easy to use in the sunlight. I have no problems. If you dont like Samsungs UI, youre not stuck with it you can change it. :)

So, the videocall camera is only for video call? Can it be used to take photos?

Anonymous, 11 Aug 2008apparently not.... just spoke to them and they said they were not getting itthis is a post i found, this guy is getting the 16gb omnia as an upgrade on orange Comment from: Kam [Visitor]
OK Just to clear things up...Iphone lovers please dont lie.
The Samsung Omnia WILL release the 16GB version in the UK!!!
How do I know...I am due an upgrade on Orange and have been
told by 3 different Customer Advisors that the 16GB IS
available on ORANGE! I think Iphone groupies are quivering in their boots...hence the liesss!

Just too fed up waiting for it in the UK now. G810 was "released" before Omnia and still has not hit the high street, same for Xperia. Doubt any brand gives 100% performance, but do remember that in the UK under the Sale of Goods Act if the product is not of satisfactory quality, or fit for purpose, you have a legal right to return it to the shop with whom you have a contract (NOT the manufacturer) and you are entitled NOT to another phone but to your money back as you are repudiating the contract. So don't put up with crap. Stand firm as shops will argue with you, cite the law and they often give way. Hope this helps. Sorry to those outside UK I cannot offer the same advice, but suspect most countries have similar laws.

OMNIA Sucks, 10 Aug 2008Samsung OMNIA Sucks! and Made international Roaming calls on its own!!! I am sharing my utt... moreI was reading your comments when it comes to your Ominia. Bad Luck to you. I've bought mine a couple of months ago and had no issues at all. In fact I was able to install the softwares such as iphone themes, NAVphone mapking so on and so forth Just wanna share my good experience with this phone. Although this phone has limitation, (which phone hasn't?) Overall I'm satisfied with it.Just my two cents...

to theefman: are u telling me that ur omnia does not save photos in ram and that u can take hundreds of photos with no problems? are u also telling me that ur omnia runs without jamming up the ram? even if u haven't installed one new program on ur phone since u got it? so u can always open ur camera with no problem? if so please share ur secret...maybe i'm doing something wrong? maybe if ppl didn't pay big bucks for a crap product that doesn't work properly...they wouldn't be complaining. i don't know about u but i just want a phone that does what it supposed to...i don't have time to deal with problem after problem...a phone should just run like a phone.....don't worry...ur problems will come...then u will be the one complaining :)

ya...i'm beginning to think the omnia does suck. i/ve had it 2 weeks an really disappointed! what kind of retard designed this thing? for some reason ram memory is always almost full even with no programs running? i can't even open camera to use? i'm sure even when i find out what's taking all the memory (i closed all programs) the stupid thing will save the photos i take in the ram instead of on the huge 16gb hard drive! i'm giving this thing 2 more weeks for samsung to regulate problems via update or i'm out...gonna sell this piece of crap and give my money to HTC or apple...or maybe just keep my good old n95 and wait for nokia to come out with their flagship! did i mention the friggin latest update removes haptic feedback!!!

Unlike the i780, the Omnia works better with the mouse. It has a more solid feel -and click/press- to it (instead of being plain flat on the phone).
The downside is that you get to see the mouse pointer most of the time in the today screen. I have yet to see if that's a problem in the field with dirty fingers.

You don't pay for the GPS usage. But you do need a GPS software to use GPS since the phone doesn't come with one.
Good luck finding one that works with the strange resolution that the phone has. Let me know what other program works since I would really like to have a GPS program that works for the phone. I know TomTom6 doesn't work well.
