Well after 2 full days and 2 long nights with the Omnia, I realize how "dumb" the WM Pro OS is! Well, OK, forgot, because I came to the Q's from a Samsung i730.
Why they just have not made the WM Standard OS "touch" also is beyond me. Honestly, WM Standard would make a much better touchscreen OS than Pro. I honestly beleive the only real, good, touchscreen phone is the iPhone with the Storm coming in a distant 2nd. WM Pro is just not finger friendly. It is if you are using 3rd party software like SPB Shell or Winterface, but once you get past those and you are into a regular WM program you pretty much have to use a stylus or on the Omnia, use the mouse cursor.
The Omnia is going back this afternoon. I am either sticking with my WM6.1 Q9m or may for the hec of it try the Storm. I really just want the Napolean! Just give me a Q with wifi (not on a sd card) so when I use my Redly the net rocks!
Rant over...
When I played with the Omnia at the VZW store I had to get my pen out to use as a stylus, so yea, it ain't very finger friendly. The clicky screen takes some getting used to on the Storm, and it gets hit with both the $30 data plan plus a $24/month "email storage" plan, for a $54 premium. Unless corporate is paying for it, I can't justify that much. For my $30/month I'd have the iPhone, enough with the pretenders. But I'm probably going to get the Q9c and save the $30/month since it will be grandfathered into the buy- by-the-drink data plan.
