Slim, stylish Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 multimedia computers offer easy
access to range of email solutions, including Microsoft Exchange
London, UK - Nokia introduced today the Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 - the
latest email-optimized devices from the Nokia Eseries product range.
The sleek Nokia E71 with full QWERTY keyboard and the stylish,
slide-to-open Nokia E66 easily mobilize a broad range of personal or
professional messaging needs, including Microsoft Exchange, the
world's most widely adopted corporate email solution. Both devices
are expected to begin shipping in key markets in July. The Nokia E71
and the Nokia E66 are expected to retail at EUR 350, before
applicable taxes and subsidies.
"The Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 were designed for people who lead a
mobile lifestyle and want quick and easy access to their personal and
work email. With both of these devices, we have responded to consumer
feedback by making calendar and contacts available at the touch of a
button," said Søren Petersen, Senior Vice President, Devices, Nokia.
"Equally important, people want well-crafted devices that are as
beautiful to use as they are to behold. Stainless steel was chosen as
the core material for these devices, giving them additional strength
and a touch of class. Furthermore, the Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 offer
all the latest multimedia features that people desire."
Easy, one-touch access to email
The Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 come fully equipped for easy-to-install
and easy-to-use professional and personal email. People who use
Microsoft Exchange at work can access their email using the Mail for
Exchange mobile email client, which comes pre-loaded with the Nokia
E71 and Nokia E66. With these Nokia Eseries devices, people can get
reliable real-time access to their email, calendar, contacts and
tasks, as well as download attachments like Word, Excel, Powerpoint
or PDF files directly to their devices.
The Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 support email accounts from more than a
thousand internet service providers (ISPs) around the world, as well
as Gmail, Yahoo! mail and Hotmail. Additionally, the Nokia E71 and
Nokia E66 support the Nokia Intellisync Wireless Email solution as
well as third party email solutions like System Seven and Visto
Mobile. Both devices come with the new switch mode that allows people
easily to switch between personal and work home screens.
"With mobile email penetration and access to wireless applications
growing at a rapid rate, Nokia is well positioned with its extensive
lineup of market leading handsets to address the needs of consumers,
high-end users and mobile professionals alike," said Andrew Brown,
Director, Wireless Enterprise Strategies Global Wireless Practice,
Strategy Analytics.
Sophisticated tool, premium design inside and out
With a stainless steel case, etched graphics and available in two
colors - grey steel or white steel - the Nokia E71 bears the
hallmarks of Nokia quality and craftsmanship. The cool metallic
finish is complemented by the bright colour display, which showcases
the Nokia E71 device's brilliantly simple user interface. Designed
for both one-handed and two-handed use, the Nokia E71 pays special
attention to ergonomics, as evidenced by its narrow shape and
specially designed keypad.
The Nokia E66 offers a premium look and feel with its stainless steel
accents and smooth sliding design. Sharing the same key features as
the Nokia E71, including an enhanced calendar, contacts and
customizable home screen modes, the Nokia E66 offers unique
additions, like an orientation sensor that automatically optimizes
itself for full screen viewing or silences the ringer when the device
is turned over. Available in grey steel or white steel version, the
Nokia E66 leaves a lasting impression as a sophisticated business
tool in a distinct design.
Always Entertaining
In addition to email and personal information management, the Nokia
E71 and Nokia E66 support the latest Ovi services including maps,
music and media sharing that power users expect from their device.
This includes fast and seamless browsing with HSDPA, wireless LAN and
3G connectivity, Assisted GPS (A-GPS) and Nokia Maps for navigation,
a music player with support for up to 8 GB expandable memory and a
3.2 megapixel autofocus camera.
Built for Businesses of all sizes
In addition to serving entrepreneurs and smaller businesses, the
Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 also come fully equipped with a robust suite
of enterprise grade features, including a built-in encryption
functionality for both the device memory and for the memory card.
Both Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 also include integrated mobile VPN
support that gives mobile professionals access to their company
intranet, and device lock and wipe to protect corporate information.
Incorporating underlying technologies that allow IT departments to
effectively manage security settings, corporate applications, data
and advanced voice features, the Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 expand the
range of Nokia Eseries devices that support enterprise-specific
deployment.
