Nokia E61

E61


I bought the E61 which is a piece of email queen 3 months ago, after drooling over my friends E61 for over 2 months. Nokia has delivered a beast for email and SMS. My expectations were high that day in septmember when I reached the disk at the phone shop. I remember thinking, "don't be sold out, please don't be sold out". The assistant in the shop could see my worried face turn into a huge smile when he laid the precious shiny smartphone on the desk. If you have the habit of always staying online, this is the phone.
