BGR has posted that the Samsung Omnia II is going to be launching on Bell’s new HSDPA network… soon. Apparently we’re looking at $349 on a 3-year contract or $549 without. While that really doesn’t seem like much of a discount for 3 years of your life, cheer up: soon the dollar will be past par with the greenback and we’ll be able to cherry-pick from US retailers ;)
AT&T has provided us all with its own hands-on video of three of its most anticipated phones of their spring line up – one of which is the Samsung Propel Pro – a Windows Mobile 6.1 device featuring a full QWERTY keyboard, Wi-Fi, and enterprise applications. The Samsung Propel Pro will be on sale for an expected $149.99 in April (customer’s pay $199.99 and after mail-in rebate, receive $50 AT&T promotion card).
The other two phones featured in the above video are both Symbian devices (Nokia’s E71x along with Samsung’s Impression) and will also be released as part of AT&T’s spring lineup.

Engadget was lucky enough to get their hands on a Samsung SCH-M830 — Samsung’s current WIMAX and HSDPA device. It’s no HTC MAX 4G, but it’s certainly flashy enough with its 3.3 inch screen and cool user interface (powered by Windows Mobile 6.1, of course).
It’s a safe bet that it’ll be living exclusively in Korea for a while but we’re happy to see more and more WIMAX phones being made — come on, North America, step up!

We at WindowsMobile Cool heard about this device at the end of last week, but we had no idea just how much hype this device would get!
Now, just so we’re clear, this isn’t a Windows Mobile device – but it’s still pretty rockin’! Check out these features: Touch display which slides and tilts to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard, ssisted GPS, 5MP camera with dual LED flash and Carl Zeiss lens, 3G with HSDPA, WiFi, A2DP Bluetooth and 32GB of onboard memory, plus a slot for another 16GB via MicroSD card. Cool!

Remember the Motorola Atila? Motorola’s proposed answer to the iPhone 3G? Well, now that all the buzz has died down (as is the way with so many devices these days), new spy shots have been released as a reminder that this device will actually be coming out… someday.
LG Incite unboxing
The folks at pocketnow have just posted a video of their unboxing of the new and awesome LG Incite.
The LG Incite, as mentioned before, packs a 3″, wide QVGA resolution screen, an accelerometer for automatic screen rotation, and of course, HSDPA, FM Radio, WiFi, aGPS, Bluetooth 2.0, and all that. Strangely enough, like the HTC Touch HD, the Incite has no D-Pad, but a scrolling wheel on the side. I’m not sure how I feel about that, personally, but the folks at pocketnow find it to be a welcome addition.
What do you thinK? Will the LG Incite stand up against some of the other new and fancy devices like the Fuze (HTC Touch Pro) or the Samsung Omnia?

It’s about time! The LG Incite, which was announced over a month ago, is finally showing up on AT&T’s website – in stock and ready to be snatched up!
Sure, it might be bad timing for AT&T to release such a hyped device in the same week as Verizon Wireless launches their much hyped device – the BlackBerry Storm. But I would argue that it’s a great time to show what Windows Mobile has up their sleeve.
The LG Incite is available for $299 with a $100 mail-in rebate (Visa gift card) – not bad at all!
According to today’s Wall Street Journal, HP is getting ready to launch a brand new Communicator before the year’s end. Could this be the previously leaked HP OAK that we heard about at the beginning of this year?
From what I can tell, the HP OAK looks to be an HP touchscreen version of the HTC S710 (Vox) — with two keyboards (digital and side-sliding QWERTY). It’s rumoured to have HSDPA, GPS, WiFi, and Bluetooth, running Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.
No more details are known about release date or price, but stay tuned!
