I’ve wanted to share my experience about buying and using my new PDA Phone (a used Samsung Omnia) since I bought it about 2 1/2 months ago, but due to the hectic schedule I was unable to do so. This week until mid of July I’m free from any lecture (due to the semester break ) and hopefully will be able to write something to share with you about the PDA phone.
All I can say at this moment is that if you have the money now, do not think twice of getting a PDA phone because the benefit is tremendous. Having a PDA phone is like owning a transformers robot, not only that it can function as a super robot, it can also function as a supercar… like the Bumblebee he he… It also feels like having a dead computer being reincarnated, it became alive and later became a joy of your life.
If I’m being given a choice either to buy a PDA phone or a new laptop, I would definitely choose a PDA phone (if I do not own one and already have an old laptop).
This will be my first posting with regards to the application and function of the PDA phone (I’ll just call it Omnia after this) and will be posting many articles again later hopefully. The experience of using this Omnia has been a pleasant experience even though at the beginning I’ve even thinking of returning this item back to the seller at Lelong but after doing some upgrading, tweaking and installing I decided to keep it and enjoy using it.
Below is the latest screenshoot of my Omnia after installing the Spb Mobile Shell to replace the standard Omnia interface. I would dare to say that this interface is even better than the standard interface of the iPhone. I would highly recommend you to use this software (Spb Mobile Shell) to replace the Omnia standard interface.
The image is arranged side by side as it is laid out on the phone itself. You can just use your finger to slide the interface from left to right and vice-versa to view all the interface without clicking on any button. Below is the video of the application of the software on a Windows Mobile device:

Have u been using an iPhone before the current Omnia since u mentioned the interface is better?
Of course, I’ve been using it for quite sometimes already, that is why I’m brave enough to say that my old friend.
For more information about what I meant to the above please visit this site http://www.careace.net/2009/06/30/windows-mobile-vs-iphone-an-users-experience/. Basically I like the flexibility given by WinMo in terms of determining the type of info that can be displayed on the ‘Today’ screen as compared to iPhone. That is why I would dare to say that the new interface is even better than the standard interface of the iPhone.
