Samsung-Omnia-II-i8000-September As Steve pointed out in a recent comment, there was a possibility that some Windows Mobile 6.5 devices could drop in September along with the Zune HD and a possible new iPod Touch…and he was right.

The Austrian government carrier, A1, will be releasing the Samsung Omnia 2 at the end of September, featuring a beautiful WVGA AMOLED touchscreen…with WinMo 6.5 baked right in. As far as anyone knows now, this will be the first released device to run Windows Mobile 6.5. No word yet if other European carriers will follow suit.

For German speakers, HERE is the press release.

Zealot has been involved with mobile devices for more than a decade now, starting off with dumb phones, moving to PDAs and then to smartphones, notebooks and netbooks with the odd PMP thrown in. Most of his mobile time currently is spent on a Treo Pro, Zune HD, Thinkpad T61, Gigabyte M912M or a Hackintoshed Compaq Mini 704. He proudly groks the Geek community and considers himself a Neo Maxi Zune Dweebie (thanks Will Wheaton!).

  • Hey, it's good to see that somebody actually reads my comments. It's even better to see that I'm not totally full of crap. LOL

    Seriously, the Omnia II looks great. Too bad it still doesn't appear to have hardware softkeys, which is probably my biggest complaint with the Omnia I.

    And wasn't there some guideline that all WM 6.5 devices had to have a dedicated Windows key? I don't see one on the Omnia II.
