The Saga has GSM for overseas roaming and a real QWERTY keypad. But the Omnia has a larger display (with touch-qwerty) and a 5MP camera. If you don't need the GSM roaming, go with the Omnia.

I have the Omnia and it is an amazing device. To be honest, it is better than the storm. Faster, the keyboard is easier to use, dosen't freeze. The list goes on and on...... It is Verizons best PDA at the moment.

does the omnia have the same screen resolution as the storm? is the touchscreen like the dare's?

when playing around with the omnia it just seems not as nice as the storm. I guess I am spoiled by the screen on the storm. The omnia's screen looks, for lack of a better word, cheap. It is faster now, the keyboard use depends on the user but seems comparable to me. With the s/w updates to the storm it should be better execpt for the sureclick depending on who you are.

To #8: The Omnia that Verizon sells does NOT have a GSM radio or a SIM slot. There is a GSM Omnia that is sold overseas that does have a SIM slot.

#35, where you one of those school kids who lied all the time? THE VERIZON OMNIA DOES NOT HAVE GSM OR A PLACE FOR A SIM CARD. How do I know, because I've been using it for almost a week.
