Despite what people have been saying Nokia must have improved the built in email client of the new E series devices. I’ve been using the E66 and have set up the email client to use imap with gmail and it’s worked perfect for the last week. The idle works as it should, it sits there [...]

I’m pulling the trigger on Twitter today and will slowly pull out of all things Twitter. I’m not the first by any stretch and I think Twitter has had it coming. Leo also pulled the trigger too, and I think it’ll be the start of the end for Twitter.

There’s a great article in the New York Times about Luis Suarez and his use of social networking tools to reduce his email. It’s a great article as it’s a huge sales pitch on how IBM can help your business become more productive by installing the social network tools that help.

First off, the firmware has a [...]

OK, it got you to look, I don’t think it’s a world record, but it’s a record for any phone I’ve had. I’ve managed to open 30 applications and still have 32.3mb of ram left. There are some big ram hungry apps open in the list too, Google maps, Nokia maps to name two. Even [...]

Having had the E66 for 24 hours there’s a couple of new things that I’ve found. You turn the device over and it goes silent, obviously using the accelerometer here. The new calendar app new event screen is a little daunting at first, but I’m sure I’ll get used to it (see below)

The camera [...]

The E66 breathes…it sits there all dark, then the white light around the D-pad slowly comes on and then dies away slowly. This is a lot nicer than the aggressive flash of other devices that tell you it’s still alive.

It was a huge surprise today to get a knock on the door and find a courier holding a phone sized box. If you didn’t know there was a Nokia event in London today for the launch of the new E66 and E71 devices. WOM World had kindly sent me a E66 to play with [...]
