While Samsung’s official announcement of the Omnia II states that it’ll come with Windows Mobile 6.1, it seems that Austria will be getting first dibs on the Windows Mobile 6.5-powered Omnia II come September. This revelation was made none other than Microsoft Austria themselves in a brief press release. We’re not exactly sure why they’ve selected the Austrian version of the Omnia II to get tricked out with the latest Windows Mobile operating system, but we are hoping that this is just a subplot to an even bigger story. How big? Well, it’s a little far fetched with no concrete evidence available to back this one up, but we are hoping that Microsoft, in a spur of the moment thing, finally decided to roll out Windows Mobile 6.5 a little bit earlier than scheduled and Austria's announcement is only the first of many more to come. We're probably shooting for the stars here, but we're guessing that all Omnia II versions will eventually be released with Windows Mobile 6.5 on-board.
This is, of course, just our take on the situation so don’t get too excited about this proposition since everything is purely speculative for the time being. How about you guys? What do you think about Microsoft’s move to arm the Austrian version of the Samsung Omnia II with Windows Mobile 6.5?
