Hello there. I would like to say that it is agood phone but I am a bit disappointed that I don´t have the canary Island Maps included which I thought would of been included with the west Europe maps. Also, with my vodaphone network, I can´t go on the internet with Wifi. So, a good phone but a bit disappointed overall.
In a nutshell The Nokia idea of a Blackberry killer. Missing a camera but if you like qwerty and dont like using a stylus on the move this is for you! The E61i seems to be an attempt to fix the fiddly joystick which hurts your fingers in prolonged use. Overall I so want to like the E61 and in lots of ways I do. But the joystick is so bad in prolonged use that I had to sell mine on ebay. It also doesnt have a camera which is a major irritation. I really like the bigger screen and the qwerty keyboard. But the joystick means I cant use it. Email The Nokia E61 smartphone is optimized for sending and receiving email with attachments. The full keyboard and large display make writing long texts and viewing attachments fast and easy. Nokia E61 has features especially for email, like a shortcut for the inbox, a light indicator for incoming email, offline mode for reading and writing email when the network is unavailable. and full attachment support. In use it delivers well but the email client software is still not configurable enough for me. I want to be able to view the columns I care about in the font I want. I also want to have the same junk mail handling that I have on Thunderbird. Optimized for Email Tne Nokia E61 smartphone makes reading mobile mail a pleasure compared to most other phones. You can access your email on the massive color screen and respond quickly with a full messaging keyboard. The attachment viewers let you access and rranage time-sensitive documents. Send & receive while you're on the phone. Theres no predictive text because there is a full qwerty keyboard. Uncompromised voice and mobile office Nokia E61 is an email optimized device that does not compromise voice functionality. Stay in touch with conference calling with the speakerphone. Stay organized with on-device PC-compatible Microsoft Outlook contacts and calendar. Security on the move Data encryption and other security features add up to peace of mind, while speed and versatility ensure you also benefit from inreased productivity and return on investment.

For those of you who are looking for a decent PDA/phone, you could do a lot worse than getting the Nokia E61. If it had a camera as well I would be even happier, but this only means I tag along with a proper digital camera that does a better job anyway, and if I found one with a bluetooth or IR function, then maybe it would be as easy as well. I find the overall Operating system very good and easy to get around, despite the odd timelapse switching between applications. (I still think the old system software in the 9000 series has yet to find its match). Nice detail with the metal body: it not only looks better, but feels better as well, and this grows on you, somthing you really notice when you again pick up a plastic one. Very good screen, in both quality and format, a more usable format. Keyboard takes a little while to get used to, but then again, good things often need that little extra effort to get into. One very useful item I personally hjave a lot of use for is the Tomtom SatNav software whick, with a separate, very discreet little satillite receiver, hooked up via bluetooth, is a very reliable, accurate and "with you all the time without ever having to carry that extra bit of equipment" feeling. Communications with laptops and PCs good and backup trouble-free, lots of 3rd-party software, and stable performance, permits me to give this phone the thumbs-up. Here is some "proof of the pudding": I recently lost my phone. I was distraught, and I had the option of some very interesting free uppgrades from my opperator, but I without hesitation, not being even being slightly tempted to have the oppurtunity to try out something new, I paid out hard cash to get the exact same E61 again. Yhat must mean something. Happy hunting, Robert Powell-JonesRead full review
The Nokia E61 is the best phone i've ever had. I recently sold my Nokia N95 in order to buy this. The screen is very large and clear. The QWERTY keyboard is very simple to use, and great for texting/emailing/messaging. In comparison to the Blackberry Bold, which is also on the market at the moment, the E61 has a comfortable thumboard and 5-way directional key; This is Nokia's response to the Blackberry, and it has definately won as the best, and easiest-to-use smartphone. Also, the Wi-Fi connection on the E61 is very good. It took me around 2 minutes to set up my access point and get straight onto the internet. It is very simple. The E61 is a great business phone, which has all the office, multimedia and internet facilities you need. Plus, it is a reasonable thin (yet wide!) phone, which can sit neatly in your hand. The ultimate business phone for Nokia-Lovers.Read full review
