What are you talking about? The picture’s clear as a bell — you really need to get your eyes checked, friend. Naw, we’re just messin’ with you — we know this is some of the finest artwork Mr. Blurrycam has to offer — but it’s the first time we’ve seen the Verizon-branded Omnia in the wilds (notice the VZ Navigator and Visual Voice Mail icons on the screen) which makes it a notable find in our books. Our tipster tells us he’s been told to expect the 5-megapixel, 8-gigabyte package in stores before the year’s out, which makes that Incite look thoroughly less engaging attention, doesn’t it?

[Thanks, anonymous tipster]

We know about most of these handsets, but it’s continuously fun to get a few final views before they’re officially declare and made available, isn’t it? phoneArena has what must be the complete (or close to it) lineup from Samsung for the US market in the next few months all in one place, showing the a777 and a867 Eternity for AT&T, the Behold for T-Mobile, and the i770 Saga, i910 Omnia, and u810 Reknown for Verizon. New in this place is the R600 Hue II for Alltel, a boring-ass little flip that should be available in a handful of colors. There are a couple goodies in in this place — the a867, i770, and i910 should all get some blood flowing, depending on how you roll. Which one’s your favorite?

Any festering belief that Verizon’s version of the HTC Touch Pro is nothing more than a figment of our collective imagination can probably be put to bed at this time that we have it strutting its stuff on video, yeah? It looks pretty much like what you’d expect it to, sporting an interface every bit as crimson as we’ve come to expect from a carrier lovingly (or not so lovingly) nicknamed “Big Red.” It’ll have 512MB of ROM, TV-out, microSD support up to a purely theoretical 32GB, and an integrated business card scanner to put the 3.2-megapixel autofocus cam to work — enough to make the Windows Mobile faithful on Verizon drool and give pause before setting their sights on the Omnia, we figure. It’s not clear precisely when it’ll hit retail, but November 14 is sounding like a possible Dat. for deliveries to start; in the meanwhile, follow the break for the full video!
