nokia's are generally really reliable. I've gone swimming with mine accidentally and it still worked!

plus i don't really like touch pad phones, it's more of a hassle when you're texting and stuff.

Spec wise they're both pretty similar, nokia looks like it has a better design.

You'll probably get a new phone in the next 2 years anyway.

i don't know why but i have the impression that nokia is not good as they were once (by once i mean the old phone in black and white ... do you remember these phone existed once ?! ;p) since all the smartphone were out nokia always tried to follow but with a little late
so they're not as reliable and i don't know about the samsung anything

and besides i don't know if theres some good application to nokia or samsung
someone knows about it ???

I've had a few samsung touch phones and generally the ones that don't run on Android are horrible. This samsung phone runs on some unknown thing like the samsung bada os, but then again the nokia also runs on some unknown OS. According to the review you posted if you want voice guided gps and multitouch get the samsung, if you want full physical keyboard and 32gb memory get the nokia.

So you had "some geek" make a decision for you. Congratulations?

Personally, I like to get facts from people I trust to be honest and become informed. Then I make my own decisions.

you told me to ask there ! ;p
no they didn't make the decision for me i just ask about the 2 phone
so ther answer was that the nokia is too old and it's basically for geek cause it's a computer with phone option in it and in the link i posted here the guy said he jailbreaked his PS3 ... i'm not a geek ... it's like you buying a great care let's say the mustang GTO and you don't know how to drive and you don't care about cars ... come on !
he's heavy and big
the screen touch is not like the iphone or samsung it's a push touch

in the other hand the samsung is slim not heavy same resolution the OS is not better than the nokia cause it's a new OS (it's bada and in the nokia it's maemo linux) and the apps over there is not like the iphone or galaxy but it's not so bad

after i got all the the opinions from geeks and friends i took my own decision

Well, that's completely different than "they told me to take the WAVE".
