Samsung i900 Omnia back in white, looks well different

Samsung officially confirmed today the new color version of their top-of-the-line PocketPC – the i900 Omnia. The iPhonesque rear must be just what some of the WinMo fans out there have been waiting for.

Luckily, to us at least, Omnia’s white backend gets rid of the wavy pattern that reminded us of N-series, that surfaced out a little while ago. It will feature the same brushed back as the black version, only this time in snow-white color.

Here is the first official photo of the Samsung i900 Omnia new outfit. Truth be told, it’s a breather from the classy-but-too-conservative black version.

Windows Mobile-based Palm Treo Pro surfaces online, looks cool

As it seems Palm have a really nice looking Windows Mobile PocketPC in store for all GSM users.

The new Palm Treo Pro (previously rumored as Treo 850) appeared online in several screenshots grabbed from some sort of presentation slides.

Unfortunately, the slides don't reveal much about the technical specs of the Palm Treo Pro, however it's clear that the device will support GSM, there will be fast HSDPA data transfers and the whole thing is running on Windows Mobile Pro instead on Palm OS.

Wi-Fi is on board, as well as a microSD memory card slot. An infrared port is also present - a technology we thought to be long gone before Nokia released their latest Nokia E71 and Nokia E66. Next Bluetooth, 3.5mm standard audio jack and a microUSB port complete the tally. There's also a camera lens on the back - but we don't know any details.

One thing's for sure, the Palm Treo Pro seems like quite a looker (although not that slim) and we are already anxious to see it live (or at least shot live).


The Palm Treo Pro looks NOT sexy

Update: Live photos leaked later today and we were finally able to see the Palm Treo Pro live. The device doesn't look that good anymore so we guess we'll just have to take our words back.
