New Beauty in the stable – Nokia e71
I have recently acquired the new Nokia E-71. I know you are all screaming you just got the E-90. Well I must say that had the E-71 been available, at the same time as the E-90 then I would have taken the E-71 instead.
Now I am not knocking the E-90, in fact I still think it ranks up there with the best phones ever created!
The E-71 I suppose provides the ideal in terms of the functionality of the E-90 but wrapped up in a smaller package. The introduction of the predictive text is also really awesome and after just a few minutes one is able to master this function. The built in scanning function for business cards is also pretty good.
All in all I have another really fine piece of engineering from Nokia and will keep you all updated on the progress.
