Although not exactly the best kept secret (we first caught wind
last week), Samsung's Verizon-bound omnia II / I8000 is now one
hundred percent official, along with
even more official US confirmations for the Omnia Pro B760
(Louvre) slider, Omnia Pro B7320 candybar, and the
Omnia Lite B7300. Specs for the Omnia II are just a little
different than what we previously heard: 3.7-inch AMOLED resistive
touchscreen with WVGA (480 x 800) resolution, EVDO Rev A, 5
megapixel camera, 720 x 480 at 30fps video recording, 2GB to 16GB
internal storage with microSD expansion slot, Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi,
AGPS, and TouchWiz 2.0 UI. As for the Lite, we're looking at HSDPA,
WiFi, 3 megapixel camera, AGPS, and just as the name suggests, a
good likelihood it'll be overshadowed by its more feature-rich
brother.



Update: We can't say it's unexpected, but just to
be clear, Omnia II buyers shouldn't worry about living in the
past.href="http://tech.yahoo.com/news/zd/20090615/tc_zd/241388">Yahoo!
Tech reports its WinMo 6.1 underbelly will be later
upgradeable to 6.5.
