Back in June, Nokia -- the world's largest smartphone maker -- unveiled its all grown-up E-series, putting the E71 into the smartphone mix. The handheld features a full QWERTY keyboard in a stainless steel case. The 2.36-inch color display and the keyboard make the E71 a one-handed or two-handed device.What makes the Nokia E71 a true business device is its e-mail support, offering up Microsoft Exchange, among others. It also features a built-in mobile VPN and data encryption for both the handheld's memory and memory cards. The smartphone runs the Nokia S60 Symbian OS and offers 110 MB of internal memory and support for up to 8 GB of external memory. Talk time can reach 10.5 hours on a GSM network and 4.5 hours on WCDMA.
And to prove that it's not all business, the Nokia E71 features a 3.2-megapixel camera with auto-focus and flash, along with a music player. An unlocked Nokia E71 will run around $400, but can be bought cheaper with a specific carrier contract.
Release date: July 2008

The good:
The Nokia E71 features a slim design, while still managing to have a full QWERTY keyboard. The Symbian smartphone is stocked with features, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and U.S. 3G support. Voice, messaging, and productivity tools are also strong.
The bad:
The E71 is expensive, and the display is on the smaller side. The keyboard is a bit cramped as well.
The bottom line:
Mobile professionals who need a powerful but sleek messaging-centric smartphone will be well-served by the Nokia E71; just be prepared to pay a price.
