I haven’t used either the Samsung i900 Omnia or HTC Touch Diamond but I currently own the T-Mobile G1 which is made by HTC. Thats the first phone I have owned that is made by HTC and I must say I am very very impressed. I am not a fan of Samsung phones and I haven’t owned any HTC phones in the past. I can say (from the current phone I own) that I will not hesitate to buy another HTC again. The only downside is the battery life, which doesn’t last very long.
Samsung Omnia has only 128 MB of RAM and HTC Touch Diamond has 192 MB of RAM, but I’m not sure that Diamond has better performance than Omnia, because when Diamond runs several Multimedia applications at the same time together it shows worse performance than any other Windows Mobile Smartphone, and by the way, in the operation system Diamond shows 107 MB of RAM intead of 192 MB. DEAR HTC, WHERE IS THE REST 85 MB?
Received my Samsung Solstice about a 7 days back and I’m glad I discovered your site. So numerous awesome built in toys if only they can be wrested from the icy grip of ATT. I’ve got my data wire arriving and I’ll be downloading TKFE and PC Studio once I get back to the fat pipe at work. I can’t wait to see exactly what all I can make this thing perform, particularly the Gps apps. I’m a bicycle owner (hence the name) and I’ve already been itching for a mobile phone app that I can use to track my rides. Sure that can be completed with att’s own applications, but I simply cannot get myself to pay a month-to-month fee for an application. If they’d offered it as a 1 time purchase price they’d have had me.
