Funny, but 'can it cook' isn't the first question coming to my mind. More like 'can the screen be seen in sunlight... or even bright indoor light?'

Every picture I've seen so far of the Omnia, including the one heading this article, shows a milky, low-contrast blue-ish screen. Some reviews/comparisons have taken the bold step of photographing it alongside the iPhone. Bad mistake, at least for Samsung, as it's like comparing a crisp newly printed photograph to a faded old newspaper photo that's spent some time in the rain. And every shot I've seen so far has been indoors, in flourescent light and in one case apparently incandescent studio light. All bad.

So I'm wondering why, with a multi-media device such as this obviously is (DivX support is native!), the screen stinks on ice? Or does it? If the review linked to here says something about this, perhaps someone could post it here, as Pocket IE takes me to a mostly blank phonearena page and no way shown to the article. Combined with lower resolution it does really seem that the single most important element of any Pocket PC is the weakest bit of hardware with this model.
