Please, i want to know, if these windows powered samsong phones support java.
It sounds a bit ridiculous, but let me explain. For over two years now I have been using my Nokia E61i a my cellular phone. Other than being a phone, its most important feature to me was the calendar and to-do list. Nokia PCSuite software allows me to do a simple back-up of my calendar entries and contacts, synchronize my calendar entries and contacts with Nokia’s own calendar and contacts software or Windows Vista Calendar and Contacts. Basically it gave me three different ways of backing up the date on my Nokia E61i to my laptop.
Nokia PCSuite also allows you to sync your mobile phone data with Microsoft Outlook, but having migrated to OpenOffice.org for my word processing and spreadsheet needs, I do not have a copy of MS Office or MS Outlook on my computer.
When I got a replacement phone for my Nokia E61i, I purchased a Samsung B7320 Omnia Pro which is a Windows Mobile 6.1 based smart phone. I was expecting it to be able to sync with Windows Vista Calendar and Contacts since it was advertised as having:
Windows Mobile 6.1
– Windows Mobile 6.1 is a business tailored software that offers a familiar OS on the mobile
– seamless compatibility from mobile to PC
Unfortunately, the included software for syncing, Windows Mobile Device Software needs to have MS Outlook installed to work. I tried Samsung’s own proprietary Samsung New PC Studio, but unfortunately, the Samsung Utility is also dependent on MS Outlook.
Now, after a week of use, I can say I love my Samsung B7320. The only glitch is the failure to include a free copy of MS Outlook in the package. My old HTC Smart Amazing Phone from 6 or so years ago have a copy bundled with it.
For now I have a sixty-day demo of MS Outlook (which after registration gave me 100 days… cool). I hope Samsung can may its own software work independently of MS Outlook before my demo runs out. Having to get a copy of MS Office with MS Outlook will pretty much make the cost of this phone prohibitive.
Without a bundled copy of MS Outlook, the Samsung B7320 is not Windows compatible, but rather MS Office Compatible in my opinion.

The Samsung 7320 is available right 8/16/2009 now in Bangkok for approx US $350 dollars. The phone I am interested in is the Samsung 7610 which looks slide the Omni II but has a full slide out QWERTY keyboard.

Nice!! Like the Samsung Omnia Pro B7320!!
0mnia, 0mnia 2, 0mniaHD, 0mnia Lite, 0mnia pr0 B7610, 0mnia pr0 B 7320…
Very c0nfusing!
magkaiba ang jet sa omnia2..
anyway, I emailed them last 2 weeks, sabi around 30k daw yung 8gb. I really dont know, magulo ang Samsung Philippines eh!!
nagtanong din ako dati sa OmniaHD kung kailan lalabas sabi June daw! eh hanggang ngayon wala pa.. nanghuhula lang ata yung mga YUN! hahaha
for info: OmniaHD is different from omnia2!
OmniaHD is Symbian (like nokias) and Omnia2 is Windows Mobile..
Anyway, ayaw ko na sa Samsung!
I currently waiting for HTC HERO! ang tagal ilabas! wah!
samsung jet is like a cheaper version of omnia 2… but have limited apps… I also saw the samsung jet all over cyberzone sm manila for 20K pesos…
