Finally the Wave family hits Indonesia, today. Thanks to my unstoppable gadgets curiosity, now i know that Samsung is getting even more confident in releasing its Bada OS-based handsets. Despite this platform's novice status compare to its fast-growing competitors namely iPhone's iOS and Google's Android, Samsung is dare to stand out for the sake of providing the sufficient development of its rich apps (Samsung Bada OS Presentation, 2009). Unlike a year ago, when 80% of Samsung's smartphones are Windows Mobile-based and only 20% of them are operated by Symbian OS, now this Korean mobile company is ready for its new-and-personal mobile platform and software market, basically the same as RIM, Apple and Palm. A tough path, for sure.

For me, i'm not ready yet for this "ocean" -Bada (바다) is the Korean word for "ocean"-. That's why i'm still stick to my Android-driven Samsung's handset. I think most smartphone users think as stupidly simple as i did. Why choose the obscure newbie if the well-thriving one is abide? Altogether, will Bada really bring in competition for Android and iPhone? Just like OnlyGizmos stated, "unlikely". Will Bada be able to steal the smartphone lovers' hearts? My answer would be "possibly". Aside from its futuristic concept in terms of its multitouch support, which i'm sure will be loved by the gadget freaks, the assistance from the developers to enrich the OS's apps still can be expected to grab the triumph. Let's wait and see.
