I just got it today.

For Dr. Mendez : Yes its got Push to talk

For Dino : I'm not sure the difference, but my Bluetooth Rikaline 6033 GPS works.

This is THE phone to have.

It's got wireless-G, so surfing and downloading mails is fast.
I notice it opens up documents much faster than my old 9300.
One feature that surprise me is the "Say caller's name. When it rings, it also says out the name of the caller. Cool... no need to dig out of my pocket and look who's calling. Now I need to hear who's calling.
I do not know what processor it has, but it's sure much faster than 9300.
Email client is definitely best.
I think I can go on an on about it's good features.
But the only negative thing is the buttons, if you have a small hand and want to operate with one hand, make sure your thumb is as long as the width of the phone.
I like the feel of it too, simply just can't let go of it.
If there are so many people addicted to BlackBerry.
I think I'm addicted to E61.
I hope there will be more cool softwares to download for this phone.
GoodBye Windows Mobile.

    beautiful phone! best in the market right now! really wanted radio in my phone, that was disappointing but got my headset with built in fm-radio so solved that problem!

    does anyone know what the difference is between these navigation recievers?
    >Nokia Navigation Pack LD-2
    >Nokia Wireless GPS Module LD-3W
    >Nokia Wireless GPS Module LD-1W

    I wanna know because it's not clearly discribed on the nokia website. It says that the LD-2 is 2D and 3D graphics but i'm not what the other two look like.

    Please advise.

        The Nokia E61 works great with BlackBerry connect. There are also other corporate email solutions such as ActiveSync, Seven and Good.

        I think it is by far and away the best smartphone available:

              Hello everyone. My question for anyone who has the phone or has knowledge of the phone. Does it have push to talk? As far as navigating through the screen is it just the joystick? No touch screen correct?

                FOR "D":

                Thanks for your answer.

                I didn't really like the downsides you statted, specially the ones regarding the phone book search conditions, the lack of options regaring the calendar...

                The thing is though that here in Spain, almost nobody has the phone, so it may be quite hard to finf someonewho might give me an opinion...

                Dond't know... I'll keep on looking for opinions...

                ¿ANY ONE ELSE CAN HELP ME OUT? ¿9300i OR E61?

                Thank you.

                    D...

                    you can soom in and out while surfing...just press * (zoom in?) or # (zoom out)...
                    and don't press the end button just press the menu button (once to go to the menu, twice to go to the standby screen) and your applications will run in the background still....

                    holding the menu down for a couple seconds will show you all the apps you have running...

                    just in case you didn't know...




                    it has a full HTML browser which I like better than Opera IMO...

                    for those that don't have the e61, it also has a seperate WAP browser which i use for downloads etc....you can also set two different access points to each browser and run them simultaneously...

                      For DUR,

                      I had the same dilemma as u but I decided to try something different so I went with the E61. I have it for only two days so I’m not yet sure if I made the right choice or not.
                      Pro: vibration, great display, size and weight,e-mail client is a little bit superior to the one on 9300i,sepecial key for voice notes,it adds itself the voice tags for all default numbers and applications so u do not have to train it yourself(this is great),the active standby screen shows u meetings,shortcuts,even a part of the inbox,
                      Against: phone book search(only first or last name-this really sucks),keyboard smaller and the numeric keys are not separated, only one alarm and also without repeating,mini Sd,
                      Calendar appointments with very few options,no more zoom from keyboard,no more enter key,no more menu with file/edit and so on.,if u pres the end key u close the application(it won’t run in background),very few third party applications available yet.
                      I haven’t got the chance yet to test the music player , the 3G data transfer and the autonomy.
                      So far is hard to get adjusted to the new phone but I’m doing my best. If u really want an advice here’s one:go and see one E61,perhaps one of your friends has one and u can try it a bit.Only after make the decision

                              I have a 2GB card (sandisk) in my e61....no problems as of yet....
                              I have 50 songs and 3 full albums as well as about 5 5mon vid clips and 1 etire movie and plenty of room to spare...

                              it is also good to save java and other downloaded files on the card to free up the phone memory...but if you are reading this 90% of you all already know that...

                                Hy;

                                I've been a Nokia 9300i user for the past 6 months. So far so good... even though I'm missing some features, and not using some others...

                                I'm a business user: calendar, phone book and e-mail mostly. I dont' listen to music (my iPOD suits me perfectly...), I don't need a camera (my Nikon does great), so we could say I'm a basic "enterprise" user.

                                ¿SHOULD I TURN IN MY 9300i FOR AN E61?

                                I miss the smaller size, the vibrating alert, the backlite keyboard, etc... (i used to have a Qtek 9100 with I sold since i hate Windows...).

                                PLEASE HELP ME!!!

                                Thanks in advance.

                                        Serious? Thanks mate for this info.
                                        Mini-SD is cheap in my country. I guess i might just ocnsider E61 now other than M600i which require M2 card which is not available yet and expensive...
