There are no doubts Samsung will try to push its Omnia smartphone towards the U.S. shores. However, at present the i900 model’s radio support only 3G frequencies that are used in Europe and Asia. The right bands for the U.S. 3G are not there, hence the Korean giant will be (is already?) preparing special models for the Americas.
According to the FCC, we’re talking about two models here. The i910 is a CDMA phone that will most likely end up in the Verizon Wireless’ portfolio. On the other hand, the i907 is a GSM-based phone, hinting us we’ll see this one hitting AT&T’s offering.
Both Samsung and the carriers are quiet at this stage, meaning we’re waiting to hear anything official from each of the parties involved. Stay tuned in the meantime…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
