The choice in the high-end smartphone market is booming so if you’re still waiting for the Samsung Omnia Pro to arrive in your local online store you’ve got some thinking to do. Over at UMPCPortal I’ve published an article which looks at WVGA phones in both slider and slate format. I’ve also added a bunch of new devices to the database so take a look and see if there’s anything there that takes your fancy.

For those that are sick of waiting for the Omnia Pro I’d advise taking a look at the HTC Touch Pro 2 or, in the next couple of weeks, the Motorola Droid/Milestone (watch for poor reported camera quality) the Nokia  N900 (at a price premium and without a big range of 3rd party software) and hopefully before the end of November, the Xperia X2.

I’m still waiting for Windows 6.5 before I do a full review of the Omnia Pro but at this stage, the Omnia Pro has proved its value. With the lowest prices here in Germany now at under 400 Euro, it’s looking like this will be a great value-for-money, high-end WM6.5 smartphone.
