June 16, 2008 Nokia Eseries family expands with two new devices Posted by Saara at 03:28 PM | Categories: S60 News

At Nokia for Business event in London, Nokia announced two new Eseries devices, the Nokia E71 and Nokia E66. Both of the new devices are optimized for personal and professional email. The Nokia E71 features full qwerty keyboard and the Nokia E66 is a slider phone, both equipped for easy-to-install and easy-to-use professional and personal email.

If you use MS Exchange at work you can access your emails using the Mail for Exchange mobile email client, which comes pre-loaded with both devices. Additionally, the Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 support the Nokia Intellisync Wireless Email solution as well as third party email solutions like System Seven and Visto Mobile. Both devices come with the new switch mode that allows you to easily switch between personal and work home screens.

Both devices are expected to begin shipping in key markets in July. The Nokia E71 and the Nokia E66 are expected to retail at EUR 350, before taxes and subsidies.

If you are interested in what goes on at the launch event, All About Symbian is reporting live from the event on Jaiku and Twitter.

~500USD, how can consumers justify that cost in the face of competition?

Posted by: mike | June 16, 2008 04:22 PM

The price sure is a bit on the high side, but the REAL test will be in the hands of the users.

I would personally love to use one for a month. If it casts true to its word then i sure will pay $500.

The word is wait and watch..!!

As I can't find any way to inform nokia of firmware bugs, I'm posting here and hoping someone at Nokia actually reads comments.

Please go to:

and see the firmware bug. Basically instructions are (copy-pasted from the flickr page):

"to emulate this problem, change the camera settings to 1mb then try zoom to about 50% - 80% then try taking shots within this range.

In 0.3mb range it comes out if you use maximum zoom with extended zoom activated."

I've confirmed this on my newly purchased E71 with firmware details as follows:

100.07.76
08-06-2008
RM-346
Nokia E71-1 (27)

I hope this can be fixed. The camera is already bad. Add this bug and it's just horrible.
