This prank is almost as good as IGN's 'Zelda Movie'!

good april fools joke, else I am changing to this phone already. haha

i like this phone and i also believe whatever this cell has got but i cant just believe whatever i read above today.sorry guys bad luck

haha good one,I sneaked onto the site while at a computer studies lecture, and skimmed to the headlines.. I was fooled for a second

but seriously, this could be very innovative and could bear some competition to the pre!

me too, i was fooled for a second and i almost believe to relay it on the french website about Omnia HD (omniaplayerhd.free.fr) 😉

But what if fall asleep while holding that device? Will it drain me completely in 8 hours? 😊

On a day sorely lacking in creativity and wit, your "review" of the new charging system for the Omnia HD mad me laughing out loud. Bravo!
