Omnia Shows In UK; But Beware Of Warranty Caveats
Posted by Jon Westfall in "Pocket PC Hardware" @ 09:39 AM
The Samsung Omnia is popping up everwhere these days. With reviews on Slashgear and Engadget Mobile and reports that it's now available in the UK Prospective Omnia parents are probably awash with information on this new device. But here's something you may not know - Samsung is not happy about importing their devices to places they aren't supposed to be sold, and may not honor warrenties on such. So called "grey-stock" may be a great way to get a device but buyer beware. Kinda reminds me of a time I bought an i-Mate Pocket PC and had the connector fall out on me - Either ship back to Dubai or be out of luck. I was the latter, but at least I sorta expected that thing may happen. Anyone buying an Omnia?
