Sure, Nokia knows how to make solid phone, and we hear they even manage move a few units, but if there's one thing Nokia hasn't quite nailed yet -- for whatever reason -- is that thin is in. Well, it doesn't look like they're planning on winning any prizes in this arena just yet (though that N75 is dang close), but some blurry camphone shots of a supposed "E62i" successor to the E61/62 qwerty handhelds points to a marked slimming of the phone, and every mm counts in a world of smartphones like the Excalibur, Q and Pearl. From the pics, it's apparent Nokia has also added a couple of face buttons, swapped the 5-way joystiq for a welcome new flat button, and added a camera. It's hard to tell from the pics if any other dimensions have gone under the knife in the interest of making this thing a bit more pocketable, but we definitely like where this one is headed. We're otherwise in the dark for specs, but supposedly "confirmation" is headed our way near the end of November. Keep reading for a couple more pics.

That's the way it should have been in the first place...camera and no frekin joystick!! I'm not sure what to do now....hmm..I love my E61 and this is the ultimate upgrade or do I go with the n95...I wonder if it's got the gps built in?
 
I think it's stainless steel (or pretending to be) but the flash caused the gold look. The other pix appear to be clear.
 
It definitely looks cool, but if the thing does not have Wifi then what is the point?
I have a feeling that it won't for the simple reason that they would not want to have this eat through their E61 sales. Even though the E61 is meant for corporate use.
 
To make it short...
The reasoning behind the post makes no sense.

Cingular forums...
"roam restrict" wtf.

On topic...
IMO,the E61/E62 have potential but they both are missing too many things for them to be viable replacements for the HTC Wizard/TyTN, after some not so good RF experience with the Wizard I'm looking for the replacement, I almost considered the E61 but with UMTS support only at 2100 MHz and spending the all of my time in North America I going to back off until they add 850/1900 UMTS/HSDPA to the unit.

E62 from Cingular...man, 850/1900 MHz and no wifi (?) support.
Stripped!
