Only one more day to go until the much anticipated Samsung Omnia II i920 smartphone is released by Verizon Wireless on December 2nd. From what we've heard, the main reason for the minor delay was so that it would ship with Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional, not 6.1 as was originally planed. The Omnia II will also be the first device for Verizon to come with Swype entry when using the on-screen keyboard, which we are interested in trying out. Other features of the smartphone will include an impressive 3.7" AMOLED 800x480 WVGA display with 16M color support, TouchWiz 2.0 interface with 3D Cube, 5MP autofocus camera with flash, Opera browser, EVDO Rev A and Wi-Fi, Microsoft Office Mobile, DivX support, FM Radio, rear stereo speakers, 3.5mm headset jack, 8GB of internal memory, 1500mAh battery, and supports microSDHC memory cards up to 16GB in size. Pricing will be $199.99 after a $100 rebate with a 2-year contract.
