Now I really hope the Omnia II comes to AT&T.  I just learned some interesting things about it from reading pocketnow.com. 

For one thing, Outlook Mobile is skinned.  I knew the calendar and other apps were skinned, but I didn’t know Outlook was skinned as well.  Hopefully it has improved folder browsing in IMAP, because that was kind of a painful task in regular Outlook Mobile.

Another nice feature is a dual-LED flash.  Provides a bright light.  I just hope it’s automatic.  My first two phones didn’t have automatic flash.  I don’t understand why they put a flash and not make it automatic.  That’s like……that’s like……ok I can’t think of an analogy, but it’s really stupid.

And speaking of cameras, the video camera on the Omnia II can record videos at 720×480 res at 30fps.  That sounds real good, and I hope it puts out good videos.  And when showing off those videos, you can use the TV Out feature on the phone.

Other things include a proximity sensor for saving battery during a call, CPU throttling which allows you to control CPU performance at the expense of battery, and 3 home screens in TouchWiz for more widgets.

On the downside, the AMOLED screen will be a little hard to see outside on a bright day, and I also read (on Engadget) that although it got approved for US 3G, it may end up being sent to Latin America instead.  I know that the Dominican Republic uses those bands, and maybe some other countries do as well.  Hopefully it will be easy to import if it doesn’t hit the US.
