Asus Glaxy7: Omnia, who?

Well, now. This week's off to a good start, first with Sprint's integrated picture mail being linked, and now with this little gem.

Enter the Asus Glaxy7 [via wmpoweruser], an obvious answer to the Samsung Omnia. And it indeed is a looker.

What's reportedly under the hood:

• Windows Mobile 6.1.
• EDGE (850/900/1800/1900), WCDMA (900/1900/2100). That's bad news for the U.S., though, without the 850 MHz band for 3G.
• 5MP camera!
• 800x480 3.5-inch touchscreen.
• 4 hours talk time, 200 hours standby.
• 4 gigs of memory.
• MicroSD card.
• Trackball navigation.
• Accelerometer.
• Dimensions 115mm x 59mm x 13.8mm.
• WiFi.
• aGPS.
• Bluetooth 2.0.

A possible October launch also is mentioned. Let's hope we see this one sooner rather than later.
