lets hope the update doesnt take too long to get to VZW, my omnia needs some customization!

Yeah right...like VZW would allow FREE additions to our devices. If VZW passes these new widgets along to us, it'll probably only be available through the VZW App store! Mo' money...Mo' money...Mo' money (and we'll probably have to wait 'til next Christmas. Ho Ho Ho).

Try again....this is free. Widgets are just add ons for apps you have on the device, why would they charge anyone for icons? Stop showing your hater-ism so blatantly and be a bit more logical.

hopefully it would come with the announced update to bring open gps to the device (for VZW)

i dont see the big deal w/ open gps, the Navigator program comes on it, and it is the best around. I'll put Navigator up against any tom tom, tam tam, garmin, or what ever else. It works better than any other phone nav thats for darn sure. and Jedi.. its a free app. its just an organizational tool for the phone. and vzw charges no differently than ATT (but we provide better service for it!!!)

The widgets were a cool addition, but lacked real purpose and functionality. They need to be able to go across multiple screens (iphone-esq swipe system) and the user needs to be able to scroll through the widgets a lot easier. i.e. give a widget search facility. Also, i'd love phones to integrate a full search facility like Apple's Spotlight.. or at least what windows have done on vista (just not as efficiently or speedily as apple) for messages, applications, phone numbers, pictures etc. I'd like to be able to search across any info on the phone

HEY REMIXFA, I used vz nav. and its good but i finally added a cf03 based wm6.5 rom with m2d and unlocked gps,everything runs PERFECT now for about 6 months I also added a free gps called amaze to see how it works and it gave me the same directions as vz nav. google also does, the differance is on my samsung i910 vz nav. messed up and said I was about 1 block from my location this is before i went flashing my rom amaze gps works better and never has that problem and its free. To give such inaccurate info. you must work for vzw. I never get good info. from vzw employees unless it on the subject of me spending more money on bulls#i* I can get around by just learning how to properly use my device and the internet. vzw also says you cant add widgets to the omnia and you can, if your smart enough you can also make the I could write for hours about all the kickass stuff you could do with the omnia that vzw workers say is impossable.
