Yes, that is right. The sexy sleekness of it overwhelms my senses as I gaze upon its curves and petite buttons.
During my research, the Nokia E71 has been named the top PDA-phone by Cnet.
Basically the core strengths are,
- Strong battery life
- HDSPA and GPS
- Strong messaging and productivity tools
- Wi-Fi & Bluetooth
- RRP under $800
Vodafone is currently have an offer of getting it free on the $49 cap post-paid contract for 24 months. On top of that, you get 3 months free and you’ll be signed up to a plan called ‘Unlimited Weekend’ where you’ll be able to make unlimited vodafone to vodafone calls for free. Hmm, sounds tempting I know.
I think I’m going to finish up my pre-paid credit before making a decision. Unfortunately, the vodafone stores I’ve been to don’t have the actual functional phone but only the shells. Another thing that’s holding me back is that I can’t play around with it’s features before purchasing.
Compare that with the Apple iPhone where all stores had a working model and everyone got to play around with it before making a purchasing decision.
I think I’ve gotten bored of the iPhone hype and have resorted to a more business looking phone rather than multimedia.
So far I’ve heard only great things about the Nokia E71 so hopefully I can find a store that has a working version soon!
