*OFFICIAL THREAD: Nokia E71

Regarding Mac syncing, you need Missing Sync. I'd just run Windows off VMware/Parallels. I use it for Blackberry desktop manager, as there is no Mac version as yet.
 
And its here. Wow what a sexy phone! Pictures just dont it justice. Its small but not to small. I love the build quality and the sexy look. Hmm a hot pink strap? LOL what with that? I guess that was a bonus. And it does have the chinese? symbols on the number keys but they hardly noticeable. It makes my N82 look positively HUGE! Came with an adapter for the charger too. Now I have like 4 of them lol.
 
Im getting a lot better with the keyboard. I am coming from a Q9h which ahd a good keyboard that was decent sized. however sometimes I had to type with one had and couldn't do it. With the E71 one hand is very easy.

I still make mistakes but getting better. I'll give it a month or so, if it doesn't get better and if the E66 is out by then I might trade into that.
 
I totally agree, NA is a secondary market. However, its not like they have released the E71 as a Europe only 3G handset.... the thing is just totally non existant ANYWHERE. I wonder how serious Nokia is about really competing in the enterprise.
 
Whew I can't believe it.. I finished reading all pages on this thread, 4551 posts, 304 pages. It was fun reading the discussion here, anyway I want to say thanks to tkao2025, Prom1, gwapz, blacksrt4guy, Dogmann, jontymisra, wirelessgal, rapidstar, and others for the contribution to this discussion. Really, reading through all pages make me learns a lot, not only about E71, Symbian, but Blackberry, and more again.. :2thumbs:

For all new E71 users, I recommend read this discussion, I know it cost much time to read all, but it's worth the time :2thumbs:

I also got mine from rose and it did seem like he gets a little longer to ship (24hrs+), I did order mine on a Sunday though:

* Order and Payment: Sunday Jun 29 - 12PM Singapore Time
* Tracking Info: Tuesday July 1 - 11AM Singapore Time (pkg picked up at 10:27AM)
* Received: Wednedsay July 2 - 11PM Singapore Time (11AM EST)

X1387 ... would've gotten it a day earlier (he always ships very fast; I've placed my orders many times late in the evening here and he would ship within a few hours; usually from order to my door under 36hrs).

However, July 1 was a holiday in Canada, i.e. there was no way of receiving it earlier than Tuesday anyway. :D
 
Hey Jonty, did your voice mail icon in the lower right disappear? Mines gone now, I just noticed it, not sure if thats normal or I killed it and I didnt know it.
 
@Ikm19

Care to share with us the problems you have found with the firmware? unless of course you are talking about the missing Home screen search on some Asian E71's. Which Nokia are aware of and will fix with the first release of firmware for them.

I guess they have some kind of charm magnet. Must be some awesome strategy , to make a substandard product ,yet have so much following universally.
Time to do some case study and try to imbibe the same in my business. :2thumbs:
 
I know your demo came from UK.. I'm just telling you that last Thursday there was a Nokia Sponsored Event here in NYC and WOM flew from UK to NYC and I got invited and spoke about these device E66 and E71.

They said they should be getting them in ETA 2 weeks from that Thursday.
 
Oh man, I just ordered mine from Hi-Mobile.net this morning - but I went back to their website just now, and it's complete changed (as in it's a different company's site) - Looks like I just got screwed for a moderate sum of money :(

Hi maupomep

Personally i have never used the inbuilt Wizard on any of my S60 devices as never liked it but if you go here and enter a few details it should send all the correct settings to your phone via a SMS.

If not why not give Seven All Ways on Push E-Mail a try as it still has a free Beta to use and works fine with my Yahoo and MSN and BTinternet accounts. Hope one of these solves your problem as it shouldn't be happening and would be a shame to have to stop using a E71 because of it.

@tkao2025

I think it depends on where you are as I'm in the UK it's free to set it up for POP but in some places i requires one of the paid for accounts.

The first YahooGo app was brilliant that was on the N73 as it was a proper app but the newer Java versions are just rubbish IMO really slow and a connection hog. Never lasted more than a couple of minutes on any of my devices but i suppose we all have different needs and expectations just not a useable app for me.

Well I just got an email back from Plemix....they said that if I want the non-asian keypad phone, that they will need to check the warehouse and this may delay for 1-2 days......Guess I won't have a happy 4th :(
