think of it as a pseudo-smartphone .. a cross between normal phone with enchanced smartphone-like features wink.gif

FTW, Samsung i8000 Omnia II is freaking awesome. gonna burn my bank sad.gif

So is this Jet pretty much the same as Omnia or a different one altogether?

Completely different. The jet isn't part of the "Omnia" series that Samsung is rolling out - different OS, & technically not a smartphone.

I see. Thanks for clarifying.

OS samsung will always lose to iphone interface.  They only put more features and mostly steal another ppl OS and use like WinMo

So among all others in its class, iPhone would probably win UI-wise?

checked out Samsung at Sunway Pyramid: Samsung Jet is priced at RM1,888.

no actual unit yet, but based on the look-n-feel of the dummy unit, size is excellet. Much better than Nokia 5800 XM's chunky/bulky size.

How do you think they will fare against each other? Jet and 5800

Not smarter than smartphone in Samsung JET :

1) Samsung use its newly develop UI and proprietary OS : ToucWiz..it means that (right now, later Samsung will allow new application to be install) no extra application can be install in it. Unlike the smartphone, there are already thousand applications u can install. In Samsung  JET, u can only add JAVA application.

2) No editing of PDF, Power Point and Word files. Samsung Jet can only view it.

Are those the only reasons why Samsung Jet is NOT a smartphone?

do u think of any other ?

i mean, just because of those reasons Jet was out of the smartphone category?

Does a smartphone have to have ALL the capabilities and functionality of a pc?

yes..
if not then how do you define a smartphone??

How about a portable pc that can make phone calls? lol

I think there is no precise definition that constitutes the term "smart" in smartphone. Phones are getting ever smarter and it's only a matter of time before all phones have the advanced levels of functionality associated with today's smartphones.
