Look! Look! Apple announced the new iPhone ahead of schedule! Huh? Wait a minute, is that a decent camera? Ok ok, that’s not an iPhone at all. Samsung appears to be doing their best imitation of the dumb kid that used to copy all of your test answers over your shoulder back in elementary school. Remember what happened to that kid when he got caught? Samsung won’t have to stand in any corners but we’ll venture a guess that sales figures well under target will be punishment enough. The handset itself is very solid but it will undoubtedly be overshadowed a bit. Timing, as they say, is everything. Specs:
- 3.2-inch 240 x 400 WQBGA display
- Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900MHz)
- 7.2Mbps HSDPA (presumably not US), EDGE, WiFi
- Samsung TouchWiz UI over Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
- 5 megapixel CMOS camera with auto-focus, face and smile detection, geotagging and panorama mode
- Integrated accelerometer
- FM Radio
- 8 GB and 16 GB versions
Pricing will be in the $600 - $700 range when the i900 Omnia launches next week, initially in the Asian market. It will then go on sale in Europe next month. The Omnia looks sweet and certainly seems to pack specs to match but two hours from now, all eyes will be elsewhere. Hey, it was fun while it lasted.

| Samsung SGH-i900 unveiled |  In a press event earlier today, Samsung officially unveiled their newest Windows Mobile smartphone.

| Samsung A867 for AT&T found in the wild |  The Samsung Mirage, er… Eternity or whatever they end up calling it has been spotted in the wild. Looks like a pretty nice touch screen so far, much like the Omnia. Whether Samsung is trying to confuse everyone with all the numbers, or the constant change in names (if the names have actually been decided [...] [..] Read complete article | | Published 10-Oct-2008 by Marc Flores in

| Samsung Style Report showcased; name still silly |  The Samsung Style Report has a horrible name, I think we can all agree on that. It also, however, highlights some tech that Samsung should consider bringing over to this hemisphere. Showcased recently at KES2008, we have little doubt that the Style Report will only be released in the Asian region but this is the [...] [..] Read complete article | | Published 16-Oct-2008 by Zach Epstein in HandsetsSamsungStyle Report
