Every preview they have seen in a video shows its smooth iphone like ui. Fast ect ect. Now you come and say its slow and difficult to use? 0.o yeaaaaa.....

          im glad samsung made their own os, not using someone elses shyt operating systems. Look at the omnia HD, that was crap using symbian.

                  This craze with who has the biggest app store is nuts! It's not about the quantity it's all about the quality of apps!

                    Feature wise this phone is incredible. But I cant help but feel that the support for the phone after its release will slow down. I have a Samsung H1 which I dont use anymore, feature wise its like the Wave and has so much to offer. But it also came with bugs and the support for the phone is not that brilliant. Also with the OS being Linux, the Apps went from promising to stale. I know the H1 is Vodafone branded and they have a big part to play, but sometimes experimenting with a new OS is not always great.

                    I hope the Wave does well and does get better support than the H1. But I do feel the Wave is more ideally suited for someone who is happy with mainly the inbuilt feautures and not to concerned about Apps. As I really do feel that when it comes down to Apps, developers will concentrate more on the iPhone, Android, Symbian n co...

                      I am positive that all the apps on a phone's os are not used. Android, winmo, symbian and apple don't use a third of the apps built for them. All this apps craze is just madness and I'm certain there will be enough needed applications for bada and this phone given time. I just hope the apps makers will make the apps more eye candy and utilize the phone's potential. It doesn't make sense having a billion apps that are 90% rubbish. That is just my view!

                          The problem is samsungs software. Let me put it this way. The i8910 uses symbian but samsung use their own OS over the top of symbian and it sucks! Full of bugs crashes and glitches. There is no support to rectify the problems that samsung has created with their software.
