*OFFICIAL THREAD: Nokia E71

It's pretty cool I know, but how good will it be in practice though? Hmmm. But NaviWheel (something only the N78 & N96 have) is NOT here. NaviWheel vs DPad. Dpad is a physical depression to navigate menu. NaviWheel does the same, yet it ALSO allows for iPod like navigation based on TouchCapacitance. Circle your thumb around the EDGE of the Dpad, and the menu is also navigated.



EXACTLY what I've been thinking, and its' been within 4cents range for over 4mths. If APPLE can price match equivalance - something that took them 5mths to do; then surely Expansys should. Send them a letter with links to http://www.bankofcanada.ca/en/rates/exchange.html showing several mths history of $CAN vs $US dollar.

Here is a 12mth closing rate:

LOW $0.9215
HIGH $1.0778
 
Microsoft isn't competing with RIM on the device sales front, or the Domino or Groupware add-on-for-push-email front. Nokia is. Why help Nokia get more devices, and therefore more platforms for Intellisync out there?

Besides which, BB Connect requires a PIN to work with BES. RIM controls their data infrustructure, and decides who does and doesn't get PINs. It's not like it's just an API like Exchange ActiveSync that can be implemented independently: each instance of BB Connect has to connect to RIM's operations center to work. Which means RIM gets the final say on who does and doesn't work with their BES and BIS servers.
 
I like E61i over E71 as E61i screen is bigger & keys are much better than E71. E71 almost looks like BJ or BB :eek:

I will take the width for bigger screen & comfortable keys!
 
Yes kinda.. What I am saying is .. Nokia is waiting time is redesigning the body of E71 from E61i. Instead they could have tweaked E61i with those miner updates & released quickly. I love the HUGE 2.8" screen on E61! Would certianly miss it on E71.
 
doesnt sound good. mine is on its way today, and my cubicle location at work puts any phone RF to the test since its a dead zone blocked by the manufacturing floor above. my n95 hangs in there with service, so it will be pretty clear cut and easy to put and end to this once and for all if the e71 has poor reception.
 
Yes it is. However, availability is "On Order". According to the sales rep, order was processed & ready to ship when they receive the stock at the vendor warehouse.

Hey Guys!

Sorry I'm late to the party but I'm part of the E71 Club!

HOLY JESUS this things is AMAZING quality! I was AFRAID to take off the battery cover because it was so SOLID! Gotta get a new WLAN Router today - my antenna is BUNK! Even the add on doesn't properly connect.

I'm beginning to understand why S60 Signed is a pain for most new users such as myself. Apps are easy to find, but they don't fully install without being signed; themes included :( ! Nokia REALLY must fix this crap! This is why that "other" phone is getting rave reviews for user satisfaction.
 
Yeah I know, talk about almost perfect. Well ok, US 3G and a brighter screen! I wish they would fix that! Wait but what about battery life! Now its going to turn into a N95-4 all huge and ugly!
 
I do have some problems with Garmin but i guess it because i am using a crack version ;)...

Is there any way i can get nokia cardscanner application. i had to reformat mine Memory card and i lost that application and its not available on nokia website..
 
breideux> Is your data connection on when charging? It is a known bug that if data is on charge is not completing.
Read it in some forum post which I dont remember.
 
I have used only 2 s60 devices (N95, E71 now) and not sure if that's what you mean, but the volume keys are not supposed to change your profile volume as you do on a WM phone, i.e. they would appear not working while on the today screen (either that, or I got 2 bad phones). They should work while in call, or when you have the music player, radio etc. on as well, or any other application that has volume control.
