GsmArena has done a comparison and detailed review of the Omnia vs the Diamond. This review proves that though it's Samsung branded it does perform. My true gripe is the screen resolution and brightness. I really would love if they improved on that.

Actually i wrote that post before really seeing this phone. For first time in ages im liking this Samsung. Have not had a Samsung since D600 days. The specs look good plus it looks stunning. The screen looks ok to me though perhaps the brightness is not up to normal Samsung quality i think they were thinking of battery life. GSM Arena said battery life was good.

Would anyone know or have a guess at how much this phone may cost around this time NEXT YEAR?

High end phones like the nokia n95 haven't really fallen in price very much since its release.

But with so many high end phones being released nowadays maybe that will make the price go down?

and estimates?

Maybe, but I doubt that the I900's housing will have cracks that appear out of nowhere.

I've got an Omnia that I bought off Ebay UK. It's a Philippine handset and I've got Swedish as a Regional Setting. In fact there's some hidden menus tucked away that allow you to change the preconfiguration of the handset. I changed mine to Singapore, applied the new ROM and then switched it over to UK without a problem.

For those of you moaning about the screen resolution I assume you don't own one or haven't tried one to form your own opinions? Don't always believe that the review sites say. I can watch DivX/Xvid movies no problem and the screen res is fine, we are talking about a 3.2" screen here not a 42" home cinema setup, these things are all relative.

The handset is nicely built, like most of Samsungs latest offerings. It's well finished, solid feeling and there's no OTT finishes like the latest LG's. The Touchwiz works well and is nicely done, especially when you switch to one of the other Home screens rather than the Widgets. My WiFi connects seemlessly, unlike my P1, and it's nice having a built in GPS that actually has some worth unlike those that can only run Google Maps. The 5mp camera is consistently better than the K850i and has a really nicely thought out interface. Being 16gb and expandable through the SDHC card slot there's loads of storage too.

On the whole I'm really impressed with the package and am actually ready to sell my P1i. I'll be without a Sony for the first time in 5 years, they really do need to play catch up big time.

Just a quick one. If you send a file via bluetooth from an SE phone to WM, where does the file end up? Can't find it for the life of me.
