No longer does Windows Mobile alone a capable smartphone make. The platform's core is as relevant, powerful, and well-supported as ever, but that's not the problem -- the real issue is that it's just plain hard to look at. The days of WinMo looking even remotely modern in its stock form are long gone, and top-tier manufacturers clearly recognize that; everyone from ASUS to HTC has taken ...

Samsung Omnia reviewed on Engadget Mobile
Engadget —
... Remember the Touch Diamond? Yeah, well, cherish that memory, because it may be gone by the time you get done with our quick look at Samsung's mighty Omnia. We're not saying the Sammy entry blows away HTC's -- not by a long shot -- but it's a solid ...

... placed however you choose. An optical d-pad makes navigation easy and correlates to the mouse. It cab be used in traditional four-way mode or turned into a desktop-style mouse. One of the major grouses is that the QWERTY keys are too narrow for fat fingers. Also there is no pop up indicating that you have entered the correct desired text. The autocorrect is intimidating as well. Overall the Samsung Omnia, even with its minor flaws, is a neat piece. You can catch the entire review here . ...

... with lots of screenshots and a video. Quote from the review: "We tested the phone with AT and T-Mobile US SIM cards, and the phone worked fine with both. We have the Singapore model and it lacks data and MMS auto-configuration for carriers outside that region. So you'll have to enter your carrier's data and MMS settings manually.

Samsung's T*Omnia: all that and double the i900 Omni's resolution
Engadget —
... , eh? We sure did. Well here's its prettier, smarter cousin tagged the T*Omnia. For the most part, it's the same quad-band, WinMo 6.1 candybar with 7.2Mbps HSDPA data, WiFi, GPS, 5 megapixel cam, and nifty TouchWiz UI we've seen for months. But this hometown Korean version bumps the display to a WVGA, 800 x 480 pixels (up from 400 x 240) while slapping in a DMB digital television tuner to ensure it's non-Stateside status for eternity... at least with this specific configuration. Perhaps ...
