If you do, PPCSG has just <a target="_blank" href="http://www.ppcsg.com/index.php?showtopic=99784">posted a video review</a> of the software, so be sure to check it out. It doesn't have quite the same &quot;wow&quot; factor as HTC's TouchFLO 3D, but it still goes a long way toward making Windows Mobile more touch-friendly.

I have to say this one is a lot more exciting to me than the Diamond. The larger screen and extra storage are what I'm looking for. I really wish Samsung would put a VGA screen or better in this, rather than the WQVGA currently planned. Of course with Samsung's limited track record of releasing Windows Mobile phones in the US, it probably doesn't matter what I like. :(

It seems we only get whatever Verizon wants to give, and most of their GSM phones are Euro/Asia only releases.

I really like this phone. The only thing that holds me back is a screen resolution. Then again, if the price is right, I would buy it.
