Nokia E61: Making Work Play

By: Adam Jaylin

The latest entrant in the family of 'E' series, is directed towards corporate consumers. A fusion of Blackberry device and Nokia features, that's how Nokia E61 finds its description.

Technically, Nokia E61 is more than able and is engineered to suit the business needs. It might not be one of the best looking sets around, but QWERTY keypad and larger than ever screen (320 x 240 pixels, 58 x 45 mm) displaying 16M colours is a testimony of its capabilities in terms of technical specifications.

The Quadband GSM technology enables global roaming and the fact that Nokia E61 is a 3G mobile handset, work towards consumer's favour. It pledges high speed data transfer/connectivity tools but no video telephony. This brings us to the most conspicuous aspect of Nokia E61. It does not come with an integrated camera for the simple reason that business consumers wouldn't prefer one owing to the sensitive business environments.

GPRS, EDGE, 3G, WLAN, USB, Bluetooth, infrared and WAP 2.0/xHTML browser....this makes quite a list for data transfer/connectivity tools and effectively speaking, options on this front may well be seen tending towards luxury than the erstwhile norm of comfort.

Nokia E61 comes with Symbian 60 operating system which allows third party applications and games to be installed in a rather user friendly manner. It lets consumers to view and edit Microsoft office documents, adobe files and is compatible with Zip files which again reasons back to it being a business phone.

Presence of microSD/transflash card slot takes care of storage issues with requisite expansion provisions. Inbuilt memory is 75 MB and 64 MB card is included with the handset. Nokia E61 does not disappoint consumers who would seek pleasure and succor in the proximity of music through their handsets. MP3/AAC/MPEG4 player cater to their needs in an unflappable way, which never ceases to amuse.

Nokia E61 is a package thoroughly dedicated to corporate consumers and more importantly, lives up to the reputation.
