Default New Omnia From Samsung?

http://www.wmexperts.com/samsung-i8000-omnia-2

"Phone Area also says this handset has also appeared with the Cubic37 codename. Pair that with the cube button at the bottom of the phone, and it's getting pretty likely that it could sport Samsung's rumored 3D cube UI...Obviously this isn't something we'd see here with only the 2100MHz 3G band. But it's defintely something we'll an eye out for more on it in the future."

Ever since Samsung confirmed that the Omnia brand will be exclusively Windows Mobile, we've been waiting for another handset that could match what's been offered in the Symbian-based i8910. While this model won't sport HDMI out (that we know of), the rest of the specs are great: 3.7" capacitive AMOLED screen, Quadband GSM, GPS, and 8.1MP AF camera - at least as far as we know. Details are still sketchy and probably subject to change (the processor doesn't appear to support the camera resolution), so here's hoping for more than single band 3G support.

When I saw this, the voice in my head screamed: "WM 7". I may be crying out in the wilderness, and I know I wont get any confimation. But I can dream.
