Nokia recently announced the latest addition to its steadily developing E-series range, the Nokia E63, designed for people who need to manage their business and personal lives equally well through the use of the internet, emails and office applications. It measures up at 113 x 59 x 13 mm, weighs 126g and to be completely honest has a faint resemblance to Blackberry’s Curve and Bold with its flat shape, large screen, wide QWERTY keyboard and touch sensitive ‘Navi wheel’, again fairly similar to BlackBerry with their ‘TrackBall’ which can be found on most of their phones including their latest edition, the 8220 Pearl, their first leap into the flip phone market.The E63 is a messaging device that will allow people to be just as involved in their social network as they are in their business network, so it comes packed with Wi-Fi connectivity, easy access to Mail for Exchange and dedicated key access to contacts, calendar and emails. Nokia have also added the ability to switch modes with a single key press, switching from a view of corporate mail, appointments and intranet data, to a personal mode with pictures of friends, personal email and shortcuts to favourite hobby blogs or websites.
The phone will be available in ruby red or ultramarine blue with a range of multimedia features. Record and view images and videos with the 2 megapixel camera and bright landscape display, listen to music downloaded from the Nokia Music Store, or a number of other sources via the standard 3.5 mm audio jack or customise the device through the thousands of applications available for download. It also includes Files on Ovi, a service where people can get remote access to their PC files even when their computer is offline. It has also been suggested that anyone buying the phone will have access to 1GB of online file storage for free, though this is still tbc.
