It shouldn’t be a shock that Samsung’s previous forays into luxury phones and “weird” designs hasn’t gone very well. The combination of odd design and high price won’t be a popular one in this economy, but it seems with the introduction of the Ego, Samsung has learned their lesson well.

The Samsung Omnia is rumored to be a pretty hot phone, and is not available across much of the US yet. That deficit will be corrected on December 8, and as extra good news, Verizon Wireless has already decided to reduce its price from $249.99 retail to $199.99 (with a 2-year agreement).
