As if we weren't been pampered with enough devices during the Samsung Mobile Unpacked event, the usual appearance by Samsung at the CommunicAsia showfloor was there to woo mobile enthusiasts even further. At the Singapore Expo, trade visitors and members of the media were given more personal time with the recently announced Omnia devices, as well as the recently announced 12-megapixel camera phone known as the Samsung Pixon 12 in the midst of all the beauties (both devices and the pretty ladies) at the Samsung booth.

 At this year's CommunicAsia, Samsung took the chance to showcase their latest Omnia phones. Also, it doesn't hurt that there were a bevy of showgirls at their booth.

 Taking center stage was the new Samsung Jet. Touted as a stylish phone for casual users who require basic smartphone functions, the Jet features a 3.1-inch WVGA AMOLED screen, Internet browsing capability, GPS, MP3 and video playback, and a 5 megapixel autofocus camera.

 Samsung has also expanded the Omnia line and this is the new Omnia Lite. It's a basic, easy-to-use phone with all the multimedia, Internet and business features that people have come to expect from smartphones.

 This is new Omnia II. Positioned as an all-in-one for casual and business users, it runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.

 This is one of the two new Omnia Pro models. This is the B7610, it features a 3.5-inch WVGA AMOLED display, a slide out QWERTY keyboard, a 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus, and it runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.

 The other member of the Omnia Pro family is the B7320, it too features a full QWERTY keyboard, but it has a smaller 2.4-inch QVGA TFT screen and 3 megapixel camera. What's also different is that it runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 standard.

  This is the Samsung I8910 HD, a features a 3.7-inch AMOLED display, TouchWiz UI, and features a 8 megapixel camera capable of recording in full HD. It can also be connected to a screen to output HD quality videos.

 Samsung also showcased the Pixon 12, the world's first 12 megapixel camera phone with 28mm wide lens.
