*OFFICIAL THREAD: Nokia E71

The SD card should already been inserted in the phone's SD card slot.

Like I have been posting, I suggest you take the SD card out first and do a back-up BEFORE you power up your unit... It will come in really handy :)
 
It's been almost 6 freaking months since this thing was leaked, with multiple sightings and updates posted here and elsewhere since January...and still no official Nokia announcement and release date. Should we expect this with US 3G in September like it was said from dechowireless? because that would suck! I want this thing now.
 
Upon recommendations I saw here, I ordered my E71-1 from Rose528400 in Singapore via eBay using Microsoft Live Search.

I ordered my E71-1 on Tuesday, July 1. It was shipped Fedex Priority International and made it to Memphis by July 3. I probably would've of had it by July 4 if it wasn't a holiday, so I ended up receiving it at 8:30am on Monday, July 7.

I'm totally satisfied so I figured I'd give Rose528400 a plug...

Also connected to eBay through Microsoft Live Search (so the Live Search Cashback icon appears on the eBay web pages) so I'm getting 25% off my purchase (about $128). It took a couple days for the credit to appear in my Microsoft Cashback account, and in 60 days it should be automatically transferred to my PayPal account. No complaints about being paid to shop.

I'm really liking this Nokia Ovi Share thing too...

 
sweet, thanks for the link. im waiting for that confirmation of shipment email for my NAM version and don't want to be without a micro SD card when it arrives.
 
3G supposed to be bit clear than 2G. However every 3G phone I had including N95-3 had dropped calls. Because of the 3G to/from 2G transition as AT&T doe not have good 3G coverage.
 
I don't think 3mm are really making a lot of size difference for each key?

Anyway, the rumored size is just a wee bit smaller than a BlackJack in every dimension, and that keyboard is quite nice to use, so I guess it might be OK on the E71 as well.

I just hope the 3.2MPx will have AF...
 
Why wouldnt it? I have heard too many of these rumours already. Better just sit and wait..... newest rumour is that it's coming 6th of May :D

EDIT: Agree with the above they cant let that release date to fall too long. There's too many products that could steal the thunder.
 
Yes there were some released today. This weekend will be when most stores will have them. First out I heard is the dark grey version followed by the white.
E66 is being released in July, but no dummy sets out for that yet.
 
I hear ya! Check out Emoze: It has pseudo push support for OWA. I'm running 4.5.0.69 on my Curve and it still feels so retro despite HTML email support.
 
I maybe less inclined to pick up the E71 if I get the new BB, and it is reported on the BGR that it will be announced on Monday. He says the announcement is 100% confirmed. I was going to sell my E51 and get the E71, but now maybe I wont. For my daily driver, a BB is a better choice (for me), but there some things about having a S60 device that I really like. But for occasional use, the E51 will probably suffice, and I will suffer thru the small screen size.
 
Haven't really tested but seems fine so far. I've been in my office today so the real test will be outside on the streets of NYC....I will let you know if I feel there are any issues.
 
The simple answer to why AT&T cripples the E61 is: Business decision

networks want to control what devices goes on their network. Think about wifi, if you can use wifi at a cafe, the network is loosing revenue on data usage.

Why do you think iPhone was launched w/o the ability to assign your own ringtones.
