You guys have to be kidding me... I'm changing phones when Windows Mobile 7 comes out unless someone magically manages to get it working on the Omnia. Saying that, the Omnia is still a great phone.

Really? Why didn't you like to HD2. I got mine on Monday and still love it. Capacitive touch screens are simply brilliant.

Me as well, had the chance to upgrade to HD2 for cheap but decided to stay with the Omnia for now.

HD2 is to big and heavy and the battery with big screen is bad.

I am waitting for WinMo7 or a WM 6.5 device from HTC with 512NB RAM.

I8000 looks good but my carrier dose not have it...

I have also upgraded my omnia for the N900

So goodbye from me and thanks to all those that have made the Omnia what it is now (chefs, developers etc)

Got the Motorola Droid for 100 bucks today.

I suppose it was seeing the videos of Windows Phone 7 that jarred me into realizing I can't wait another year for a modern OS.

I plan on selling my Droid next Christmas in time for a triumphant return to Windows Phone 7.

It's been quite a journey and I wish you all the best of luck.

WP7 doesn't sound so hot to me.

If this is true, my next phone is likely to be Android (but NOT the Moto droid).

Have you been under a rock? Linking to rumors.

Can I also ask why you wouldn't get a Moto droid? I was hesitant since I've never had a good experience with Motorolas in my past but I haven't heard a bad thing about the Droid yet.

Well, I have a friend who had Milestone (european version of droid as I understand) and with Android 2.0 we played with it for a 2-3 days....well, let's just say I really don't understand how so many people fall in trap of marketing and start spreading superlatives that easy. The limtations of the Moto/A2.0 were unbelievable compared to i900/WM. Just some examples

- interface was slow

- no real sync for Outlook/thunderbird/lotus notes - only buggy and partial sync through google.

- no real calendar/agenda widget

- no tasks or notes sync

- no connectivity to WLANs with hidden SSID!

- no voice dial (2.1 should have it now)

- if auto connect to wlans is enabled - the devices connects to the first open wlan no matter if it usable or not..then of course goes to the gsm network

- no settings for scheduled mail sync, no settings for mail fetching (size, only headers, part of messages, etc.), bunch of other mail client limitations..

I can't say whether these were real problems or we couldn't figure it out how to do it, but...the device was returned and android is no go for me since then. Might give it a try in some months, but will have to test it quite good beforehand.

Nope, I knew about the announcement, but I didn't see anything in your link that contradicts what's in mine.

As for the Droid, I LOVE Motorola phones. Best reception and usually very sturdy. The Droid is probably no exception. But coming from the slim Omnia, it felt chunky and clunky. Software felt the same. Two of my staff chose the Droid for their business phone and I helped them set them up. Afterwards I was very thankful I kept my Omnia.

...just my $.02; your mileage may vary. :D

Second day, I can certainly understand your concerns.

Although speed has yet to be a problem in terms of customization and options the Android OS pales in comparison.

However I was fed up with the Omnia's relatively poor touch sensitivity, ugly OS, lack of RAM/memory leaks.

WM is terrific because it has such a wide open community of developers but within the first day in the Android Marketplace I found some of the greatest apps I've never heard of (Time-lapse photography app! Google Goggles!)

I do have to agree the droid is HEAVY but as for clunky I would hardly say so, the design is industrial and I'm looking forward to not being asked "Is that an iPhone?" everytime someone sees my phone.

Also the camera seems on par with the omnia if not a bit less sharp, plus fewer camera settings. (2.0.1)

But by far the greatest experience I've had so far is ironically an app crashing! It didn't lock up on me, I didn't have to pull the battery or soft reset. It simply force closed and re-opened the app.

That alone was worth the switch for me.

As rfarrah said, to each their own.

Sorry for the long post, lot's of impressions.

same here. i still have them come too me with issues and apps they think they need, and so far there hasnt been one thing that my omnia isnt capable of. theres been one theirs cant do, save email attachments to the SD card. that is one thing i will really miss if i have to move on from wm6. along with multitasking and customizability.

Me, too. Still looking to see if there is something better out there - haven't found it yet. But over at BGR is seems like there's something new coming down almost every day. We'll see what spring and summer bring us.
