New phones cooler than the iPhone?

I enjoy my iPhone, mostly because of it’s size, the way it meshes with my computer and the easy way to access hundreds of thousands of semi-useful applications. The GPS is amazing, and the fact that I can carry the best of my music collection is also a bonus (I’ve actually stopped carrying my 80gb iPod). However, it’s not all puppy-dogs and rainbows. I loath the lack of customization in notifications of emails, SMS and phone calls (why the heck can’t I set SMS and email notification to vibrate, while having phone calls on vibrate then ring — that’s a late 90′s feature) and the camera is essentially useless. It’s good that the iPhone has been so popular, because it’s driven other players to bring out amazing products, and the latest to enter the market is a new device from Samsung.

Samsung has announced the Omnia HD which is a new smartphone that runs Symbian and offers a 3.7-inch (360×640) screen, HSUPA, GPS, Bluetooth and either 8 or 16GB of storage along with an additional MicroSDHC slot (up to 32GB card) plus an 8MP camera and 1280×720 video recording at 24fps. That sounds pretty ridiculous.
