    i do not get the madness about 3.5 jack. what a waste of space in potable devices. there is a smaller version out there. i would even recommend portable device makers agree on some even smaller design. dedicated audio jack, but 3.5mm is way backward.

        Do u think Omnia II is better than Omnia HD, other than the camera and video features?

                  in europe samsung is most profitable firm. Why? Becuouse of great statistic of service department. How? Easy, every single one of phone stops working after a few days. So go and buy their stuf.

                        But do hope Samsung made a big change to it interface in future.

                        The 3d effect is cool and speedy but it a bit bored since it similar (better look) with ultra touch.

                        The 3D cube looks better a lot compared with LG S-Class, I like it.

                        The music player during landscape is nice but normal portrait is ugly and boring, music player done is LG is much more cool.

                        I know you may said Samsung copycat, this is fade, Samsung always copycat anytime. Ha! Ha!

                        I like it but I won't buy, the annoucement do a bit dissapointed. But the new interface is wow! I like it and hope Pixon 12 is same interface as well. if not then wait for others better spec phone came with it. Still waiting, not rush, this year I won't change any phone, wait Samsung out somethings more cool on year 2010. :)

                          The bad things is it is not secret enough, all being leak before.

                          But! the new interface is wow and the speed is incredible.

                          Check the Samsung Jet video below before speed:

                            nothing impressive..

                            that unpacked event got hopes up so high.. it was the perfect score with the i8910 just hitting the selves and anoucment of the Pixon12

                            it looked like Samsung were ready to take the number 1 rank with the
                            "3 Amazing Top Secret, Next Flagship Phones"

                            And what do we get? Ungly Cube Buttoned 5mp Phones..

                            Copied the LG arena cube that was taken from the HTC Cruze Great work Samsung..

                              Samsung going crazy in 2009 even though the recession is on us,so loads will not able to afford there top end mobiles,an most of them are touch screen mobiles that not everyone can use,o.k for office workers but for construction an engineering people you can"t use them easily,so i hope we get some normal mobiles instead from Samsung to make it able for everyone to use,o.k the 3" screens are very good for pictures an videos an thats the only advantage you get with touch screen mobile

                                    This Omnia 2 ain't right. If it is a 5MP camera and WM 6.1, might as well stick with the 1st Omnia until WM7 comes out. Same wrong strategy as when the i8910 came out.

                                    Samsung could keep this to itself. As of now, there is no Omnia successor! HTC is the way to go.
