@Endadget Has wireless n and DNLA for video sharing. HDMI would be nice for many, but it'd probably add size to a device they wanted to get in at under 10mm. I have a DNLA TV and most new Samsung TVs (largest HDTV OEM in the world), and other OEMs to a lesser extent, are coming with DNLA these days, they probably think you'll be able to view content without it.
My guess is the 5mpx camera and the lack of and external micro-SD slot. This device feels like the original Omnia. It had all the best features available then. However a 5mpx is no longer the top of the range thing.
I'm guess this is Samsung's market-test-device. Doesn't feel like a top end phone to me.
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.

Ehh I'm not feeling it. Missing something..
@VanityPhairs Yeah it's missing support after you buy it.
@VanityPhairs
It's definitely missing a flash for the camera.
Come on, at least an LED, if not Xenon, too.
No HDMI is another disappointment.
Sadly, Android devices continue to disappoint in terms of photo functionality. I guess I'll have to look at Nokia again.

@VanityPhairs It's missing Flash for the camera. Something weirdly enough not stated in the negative points for the phone.
Also, what happened to the Galaxy S Pro??
