Nokia E90 Communicator Unveiled

Nokia has taken the wraps off three new cellular-wireless devices targeted at enterprise users.

This includes the Nokia E90 Communicator, the model that will be the new flagship of this company's E series. Also just introduced are the E65 and the E61i.

All three of these are quad-band GSM phones with support for both WCDMA and Wi-Fi.

Nokia E90

Over the past few years, Nokia has released several cellular-wireless handhelds with a clamshell design. The E90, though, is the first to use this company's S60 platform, which should mean that this upcoming model will be able to run a great many applications already available.

This clamshell-shaped device will have a landscape orientation, with a screen on one side and a keyboard on the other.

In addition to its support for other wireless standards, this will be a device that offers the 3G standard HSDPA.

The E90 will also offer an FM radio, a music player, a video player and two cameras -- a 3.2 megapixel one with flash and a second camera for video conferencing.

First deliveries of the Nokia E90 Communicator are anticipated to take place during the second quarter of 2007, with global availability during the third quarter of 200this year.

Not surprisingly, this will be a relatively expensive device. Nokia says that the unsubsidized retail price will be around 750 to 800 Euros.

Nokia E65

At first glance, the Nokia E65 will be a simple tablet shape with a screen above a group of control buttons. But this model will offer something beyond the traditional cellular-wireless design: a sliding keypad.

In addition, it have all the same business capabilities of the other E series models.

The Nokia E65 is already available in some countries, and it will become more broadly available soon.

Nokia E61i

As its name suggests, the E61i will be as lightly updated version of the Nokia E61, which this company began offering last year.

Unlike the other two devices just announced, this model will offer a full keyboard in a slim tablet design.

The Nokia E61i will be released during the second quarter of this year.
