Samsung Omnia is Pretty Close to Perfect

Whatever your prejudice may be to Windows Mobile devices, the Samsung Omnia wants you to change your mind. On the outside, this 3.2-inch touch-screen phone is just another iPhone clone, Instinct 2, if you will. Omnia’s features, though, is on a league of its own.

It runs on WinMo 6.1, has GPS and geotagging and a 5 megapixel camera. As the first DivX-certified WinMo phone, the Omnia gives clients the best format choice for viewing movies while keeping in mind their smartphone needs. The TV out feature speaks volumes about Omnia as a mobile entertainment unit. No price yet for the phone, which is available in 8GB and 16GB formats.
