Samsung Omnia II poses for Exclusive pictures

As we just reported, Verizon is expected to finally launch the Samsung Omnia II on December 2nd. Set to price at $199.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate and your John Hancock on a 2 year contract, the handset will ship with Windows Mobile professional 6.5 which could be why Verizon made everyone suffer through the long wait. The 3.7 inch AMOLED display, TouchWiz 2.0, 5MP camera and 8GB of internal memory all helps justify the price, which matches the cost of the Motorola DROID.

One of our ninjas always carries a camera with him and he stealthy snapped a couple of pictures of the Omnia II for-as always-your viewing pleasure. Note the new fashion pattern that the back has, similar to what we've seen in recent European Samsung models. If you cut out the front and the back photos and tape them together, perhaps you can convince yourself that you have the device in your hand. That will have to do until December 2nd, when you should be able to walk into your local Big Red retail outlet and pick up a real Omnia II.
