I think someone posted before, but thanks.. still windows though, time to move to google :rolleyes:

the Galaxy S is out next week in the UK, and it has everything the Omnia II has to offer, but better :D

I am not a fan of iPhone but if I had to choose between WM7 and iPhone OS I would probably go for iPhone. At least it's been around and tested for a while now.

Just another nail in the coffin... I'll be heading to droid, and that opens up the hardware choice. Can't say at this point it'll be Samsung.

i will for sure be going android hopefully bell gets some good ones as omnia 2 was the best one they have currently. Samsung galaxy was on bell but samsung galaxy S is now rogers :rolleyes:. I do want to try wp7 but i think andriod will be my home from now on due to the openness.

I will probably get a WP7, but not sure it is going to be another Samsung...they seem to make things difficult, might get the LG or an HTC

LG is even worse than Samsung. If you whant qualitty and good support go for HTC ( windows or android ).

Nah i say samsung is not that bad, they make great phones just crappy OS and thats also due to winmo. They did cut corners on the omnia with opengl drivers and RAM but so has HTC with few of there. Samsung is continuing to improve the OS but not for all regions (canada).

Sadly, this will probably also be my last WM phone. I saw an associate's android phone not too long ago and I was really impressed. Anyway, I've only had my O2 for a few months now and I'll probably hold onto it for a little while longer.

gotta admit it was alot of fun customizing the O2, with numerous UI's etc, but at the end of the day you want a simple user friendly UI with alot of working apps on the fly plus games that work on the device!...and the andriod looks to promise these things...

Windows Facebook App is all i gotta say as an example of a crappy app

I want all that AND a platform that is open enough that I can tweak it and benefit from others' tweaking and development.

WM has been such a platform (well, the latter, at least; the former, could be better but I digress), and Android already is and will stay that way.

It won't be long before Android surpasses iPhone in unit sales, and third-party development.

For us Verizon i920 owners, there's some good rumoring going on that the Galaxy S will be coming to Verizon later this year. My contract's up at the end of the year, so I will be well-positioned to rape Verizon for a Galaxy S for pennies in exchange for a new 2 year commitment. YAY!

I'm excited to see what the omnia 3 would offer, but I am sick of samsung not putting 100% into their product. There is a reason that the omnia is not a mainstream smart phone. Samsung put cheap parts into it when they could have done much better.. that is why it lags even with an 800mhz. it is slower than phones with a 500mhz CPU.

I hope samsung will care about releasing a better product for a samsung 3.

No, it's using a different chip. It's an Arm 11 800 mhz, which yes, will be slower than a 500 or 600 mhz cortex A8. I thought people realized a long time ago architecture > clock speed.

Well architecture will make a cpu faster, but they don't advertise architecture, they advertise clock speed:/ and the actual bench mark speeds of a chip usually come to my attention later:/
