Samsung Omnia II revealed – actually running Windows Mobile this time
Lithuanian website Mobili Linija has pictures and specs of what they are calling the Samsung Omnia II. The device, also apparently called the Samsung GT8000 is pretty well specced, with a 3.7 inch AMOLED WVGA screen, 8.1 megapixel camera (the new high-end standard?) with Dual LED flash, WIFI, GPS and the other usual gubbins a powerful Windows Mobile phone should have.
The device apparently runs Samsung’s new Cubic interface and features DIVX compatibility, DNLA and is still powered by Windows Mobile 6.1.
The 11.9 mm device is expect to be unveiled soon, and arrive sometime in the next 3 months.

There’s something wrong with that.
It doesn’t have the Windows key that Microsoft requires for all WM6.5 devices but the taskbar icons clearly look WM6.5ish.
And even if it was only a WM6.1 device, I doubt that they wouldn’t provide an update to WM6.5 later.

Oh, nice. I bet the pic is a mockup again, but it´ll have to be something like that if Samsung wants to stay competitive.

Guys, it looks like 2009 is WinMo´s year, devices are trickling out all the time and they all seem better than the new iPhone (my opinion´s based on the latest rumours, we´ll see tomorrow

but im sure resistive, and 6.5 doesnt look possible (unless MS did reneg. on the button).
TBD not that hype though, my omnia I with 6.5 works VERY good!

The processor is the make or break. Let’s await further details. GSMarena reports that it will be Qualcomm. I REALLY hope that it’s not Mobile Station Modem (MSM7xxx), rather it is Snapdragon.
