Not that we’ve any reason to be shocked in this place, but Samsung’s Omnia is indeed coming to Verizon Wireless. ‘Course, most everyone with any remote affiliation to Big Red is frenzied over that other phone today, but those with a soft spot for Windows Mobile 6.1 may want to give this one a bit of attention. You know the highlight specs by at this time — a 5-megapixel camera / camcorder, full HTML browser and an expansive touchscreen — but the nitty-gritty details are still being withheld. As of at this time, the link on Samsung’s website tunnels straight to an error page, forcing us to be content with the knowledge that somehow, someday, this phone is destined for a life on VZW’s shelves.

Nokia’s North American N96 has already made an appearance at bes. Buy Mobile locations but, if you’re the die hard type that prefers to keep things as Nokia-centric as possible, you’ll no doubt be pleased to know that Nokia’s flagship phone is at this time also available at Nokia’s two flagship stores in New York and Chicago. You will have to pay a slight premium for all that Nokia-ness, however, with the phone running a hefty $842 (unlocked, of course) at the stores compared to the $800 bes. Buy is asking. Those with a bit more will power and slightly less affection for Nokia may want to think twice though, as Amazon at this time also has the phone listed for just $705.99, albeit with a promised ship Dat. of November 9th.
