I'm pretty sure it will include the original Omnia judging by what is said in the article. Basically it states that the "whole" Omnia range will be updated. Anyways, I wonder how it's going to turn out.

What does it matter anyway? When we have such great ROM chefs that have already been using 6.5 for the last year already. Sure, the build numbers have changed, but for a typical user the differences can be so insignificant that they are hardly noticeable.

No kidding. Our ROMs are far superior to any official Samsung ROM update. I think at the very least Samsung should hire all of our ROM cooks to help with any new ROMs. :) Samsung's official update to 6.5 will probably not include much at all besides the OS update. If it does, you can be sure that our cooks will find the best out of it and make it better.

And to be honest, I don't think we'll get an official 6.5 upgrade since our model(s) (i900,i910) were released nearly a year ago. But who needs an official upgrade when we have new versions of 6.5 and better cooks than Samsung will ever have?

Zealster after many months of cooked 6.5 ROMs i went back to 6.1 xiib3 official... very very stable and really fast... so there i room for improvement! and if the chefs are able to do a great job with unofficial and unsupported ROMs when official ROMs will be available they will be able to do an even greater job!!!

Actually, from a Rom makers point of view, we really want wm6.5 to be released. The standard wm6.5 doesn't really work, we have to change a bunch of files to be able for it to boot on our phones. If we had a true wm6.5, we would get even more performance out of our phones (on top of where we've got it already)

Like a native 6.5 kernel...

Except that they don't support some o/t features that makes the i9x0 so great.

Zoomer

Samsung Today 2

LED light turn/on from todayscreen/press hold button

In fact it are these same reasons why I bought my black 16GB Omnia last month instead of waiting for the i8000 now. I really hate that stupid cube.

Samsung is like a headless chicken. They have no goddamn direction to where they want to go.

Are they going for Touchwiz? Cubeshit? Or Today screen?

Are they going for much onboard storage or nothing?

They start acting like that bloody HTC... there's ALWAYS something missing from their fones...

If Samshit doesn't get their act together and stop flooding the market with every jackshit pda/smartfone and then not supporting them, I'm outa here.

Time to get a dumbfone from Sony ericsson again for 150 euro's instead of this +500 euro's crap.

I mean come on...

My K550i is ancient tech and can...

-Voice dailing (EVEN from bluetooth headset)

-LED light (with SOS feature)

-memo and call recording (and no fooling around. It records both receiving and sending party)

-agenda (synchronisable with outlook)

-adresbook (synchronisable with outlook)

-Games (sure they're JAVA games but hey, it's games)

-it's FAST (Yes even those JAVA games)

-The cam is lousy indoor but great outdoor... and lets be honest 2MB is enough, really.

-Opera (mini) works great on it.

-it can get emails too

and the battery last more than a bloody week.

It's just not a 3G-fone so surfing and email is slow. But I'd welcome a deathmatch between the Omnia II and any other dumbfone like C510 (which appart from that gimmick screen and touch probably can match it feature wise)

Oh man...

Dont listen to WOz, he is full of poop :)

You do realise that WoZZeR is a rom builder (I think). At any rate, he has his own 6.5 kitchen which you can check out here. I think you the one full of poop dear sir :)
