Does it tell you what time or if they left a voice mail - no that would be too convenient.If you are thinking it may be time to upgrade your phone I strongly recommend you go into the providers store and get a "hands-on" experience because it may just turn out the phone doesn't do the simple things. I don't know.

I too have a Samsung Omnia. As you read the reviews everyone sings the praises of all the "features" of this phone.

23 more months. First you have to hit the little mouse pad to remove the stupid black box, then hit the speaker button -Oh, I'm sorry did I lose the call.Did you miss a call.

I bought this phone for 2 things- to take and make cell calls and to access Excel spreadsheets when I'm in the field.Load up a spread sheet and you can see 2-3 rows and 2-3 columns which is fine until the data is spread out over 4-6 rows/columns. Guess I'll keep toting my laptop.Now the calls - you want to put the call on speaker.

First you have to pick up the phone - shake it repeatedly to switch back to portrait, enter your security code then you may see a box that tells you a phone number. 23 more months, sigh.

I decided to stay with Verizon instead of switching to ATT to go with the Apple Iphone.I am an early adapter, I picked my omnia over the blackberry storm when both had just come out in january 09. just in time for the evening commute- heck of a time for the cell phone to run out.If you are accessing the internet or listenting to music or a movie, you get about 6 hrs before the low battery alarm starts chiming.Standby time is about 36 hrs - lot of good that does though.Apple had similar issues with their phones and worked some fixes on the early ones, Samsung has no intention.When you are on a high call day.or watching a video on the phone, the phone gets hot. Go to Apple Store and see how many apps are out there for Iphone. the Omnia - like anything running Windows - bogs down over the course of the day making the search and input speed vary. If you have no intention of doing anything other than what this phone has built into it, then it is better than an Iphone. This is fine until you figure out how to use the keyboard to do email and are maddly typing only to find that the phone is three letters behind you.A simple reset solves the issue but. The Omnia offered far better processing speed, immensley better use of the touch screen technology, better screen resolution, full version of MS office rather than just a viewer and the use of Internet Explorer Mobile for internet viewing as well as Opera (not able to view all internet pages).The camera was superior, the integration with outlook was phenominal and the bundled apps were perfect.Learning curve on the Keyboard was tough but manageable.Althouth I believe this product is electronically far superior to the Iphone and Storm, there are some serious issues that have not - and probably will never be resolved as Samsung is already moving on to their next "superphone" without resolution of problems with this one and Microsoft has already (at the announcement of this phone) announced the release date of Windows Mobile 7.0.Although the Iphone is slower and has less memory, it has a far more predictable speed allowing for constant rate of typing and response. my IR thermometer says over 103 degrees.Samsung says this is normal and fine.dont know about that as there is a Lithium Polymer battery in there and that is getting hot too.I have had two phones and they both acted the same way, this is a design issue not a particular unit.The biggest reason to think carefully about the purchase of this phone is that there are NO aftermarket apps that mix well with Mobile 6.1 and none on the horizon that are reasonable.I tried to find a calculator to figure time cards, the Blackberry progam was 9.99, the palm version was 4.99, the Iphone app was 9.99 and the windows mobile version - with no promise of compatibility with 6.1 - was 49.99.Check on Amazon, downloads.com and try to find aftermarket software for windows 6.not much.

you dont have to reset an Iphone every day.The battery life is no where near advertized. If I unplug the phone at 7AM it starts complaining that a recharge is necessary by 5PM. heck, there is even an app that allows you to use it as a flute.I like the Omnia even with it's faults but wish I had known then what I know now. If you want to watch movies and listen to tunes, have some odd and end games for the train ride home at night, then dont waste your time with this phone, buy an Iphone.

El problema esta en que su caja o "housing", es muy delicada, se raya facilmente y hasta se rompe su pintura con facilidad, mas si utilizas el "stylus" amarrado a un lado del telefono, este lo golpeo constantemente y proboca este problema.Recomiendo conprarle un "case" para que no se dañe. Este telefono es precioso en cuanto a su diseño (muy delgado y elegante), sus funciones y programas son muy utiles. En fin me encanta su funcionalidad y diseño. Yo he tenido que comprar un "Housing" y un "case" para que no se me dañe el nuevo. En USA no venden el "Housing" tuve que comprarlo en Hong Kong.

This is definitely a big negative. First, I bought this phone thinking that it would resolve the problems I was having with my treo 750.HA. Touch screen doesn't respond as you would expect and as stated in other reviews the widgets are small and sometimes hard to manage.I was so excited to get this phone, windows mobile 6, great internet, email, on and on. So while you can receive calls thru the blue tooth headset, you can not make a call and that is huge for me. You won't get any help from Samsung USA as they just give you the excuse that since the phone is European, they do not support it in the US. It states in the phone review that this phone is compatable with microsoft voice command.

Texting and email work fine. It has created more problems than solutions. It won't send picture messages as advertised, at least not with T-mobile. That isn't the case, at least not for my i900. I used voice command with my treo 750 and it worked great so I just assumed it would work with the i900.it does not. If the email is set up correctly thru your phone service it works great and you can either receive emails automatically, set it up to retrieve them every few hours or get them when manually requested.I guess that if I had done a better job of researching the pros and cons of purchasing a phone made in Asia, I might have waited.

As a matter of fact, you get that excuse almost anywhere you turn for support.

Radio (with save feature)4. In short:Pros1. I'll start by saying I'm happy with this phone, it does have good looks, works great as a PDA, but need some work as a phone. TouchscreenCons1. Camera (with smiley option :) )2. GPS3. The caller id shows who is calling, but why does it has to be so small when u have this neat big screen2. I already lost my stylus, it shouldn't be that hard to find a place to put it, the HTC already solved it.Overall the hardware is great, but the software needs some work.
