I used Nokia E66 and no... moreFYI, i have been using nokia for past fifteen years and i have used all the models starting from nokia 2110 to nokia E71. i have also tried forcing myself to use BB for some time, i used 8300 curve, 8900 curve and BB bold 9000. it is not at all user friendly. yes to some extent it is good for emails only, nokia E71 (blackberry killer) has fabulous features like taking backup in the memory card, unlimited phone contacts, making voip calls in, skype, yahoo, msn, google are any sip calling and lot more. these things are not available in BB. There are lot of applications available for nokia in the market, it is a sure market leader, if your blackberry carshes, you are nowhere, u r struck, every time you should have a laptop or PC to take back up. Nokia E66 is not a sucess model, it has got software problem, from the begining it was launched.

I have downlosed Nokia Messaging software for my official and personal emails, we can have upto 10 emial accounts added to it. just we should have a unlimited data plan from our service provider. if you have that it is more than a blackberry. if you want any further clarification or arugement on this, i can give youmy contact number or you can and we can talk.

    Why Blackberry phones look like frying pans. Make new phone BB, you've got a good company and an excellent OS.

      I used Nokia E66 and now use BB Bold.
      I tried to use e-mail on E66 but the system is very rubbish, when using BB every e-mail setup is easy as cooking cup noodle.

            Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970Dear firend, there is nothing great about BB, without unlimited data plan BB is just a piece of shift. if you have the same unlimted data plan for nokia, it is like a cream on the cake. I think you dont have much knowledge about nokia, Nokia is very user friendly and in this fast world, you cannot do investigations on daily basis to just operate your phone.

                                ok, what's the big deal with blackberry (this is from somebody who's never used one before). Can you do video calling? I know you can get emails, but can you open up attachments like Adobe files? can you get word documents? I'm contemplating getting over a Nokia say E71.

                                  Hi,
                                  I hope you guys have used this in india. I have a question. Airtel said that they are giving unlimited internet plans for this. Lets say apart from using this on the mobile what about the tethering? Will it cost more when i connect my BB to laptop for accessing the internet?
                                  Please let me know.
