You don't have to buy a Blackberry or Windows Mobile device to pick up your email these days, most high-end mobile phones have a built in Email client these days. However, if you want to send more than just the odd email you'll probably want a device with a built-in keyboard. The Nokia E71 is just such a device. It includes a QWERTY keyboard as well as some other features that you might only expect to find in a Windows Mobile phone - GPS is just one of those features.

This is truely Nokia's E71 Best phone to date I can from the day I received it I have been in awe of all its features. The Bold is very good phone but beating this is going to take a miracle. I use the E71 as a business tool and am thinking of signing up for the E66 as my personal phone.

I own an E 71. I regret buying it because the keyboard is too tiny. If Nokia threw in a stylus I would have felt "complete" with my purchase. I have to use by thumbs to key-in the individual letters. I also own a 6800. This keyboard I can actually type with.

The keys really need to be "spaced out" more.

The cap key should have been situated where the letter Z is placed.
