I have my Omnia Qwerty

It was delivered around 13:10 local time (very nice ETA, I'd say). However, at work I had no time to play with it, except insert the battery and SIM and plug it in to charge the battery.

Also, the PC at work BSOD'ed on me when locking it before going to lunch and apart from some meetings I've just been struggle with the bastard ever since. Lost my full XP profile (again, twice even!). So you understand why my mood could not be any fouler at the moment. I'm just going home now..

More phone information might be forthcoming tonight, but it could very well be tomorrow or even later this week. Will definately try the LCD test program that should show off the electronic compass as one of the first things, I think. In the meantime, questions in comments might get an answer.

  1. Great news.
    Is the OS in English or Dutch? Switchable?

  3. WM is never switchable, except by ROM flashing. This one is Dutch. Unfortunately. Even though this does not seem to be as awful so far as I had surmised.

    it was implemented in omnia II fw and I don't think they're that much different
