Description
The launch of the iPhone changed the entire business phone landscape, even though the phone itself wasn't marketed nor could it seriously be used as a business device. The Nokia E66 is one of the post-iPhone smartphones with a focus on business productivity but with a slight twinge of fun.
Like its predecessor, the E65, the E66 is a quad-band slider that has 3G support depending on version (international: 2100/900, us: 850/1900). It's loaded with business applications, various synchronization methods, and email (Exchange, intellisync, etc). But there's also an integrated GPS, 3.2 megapixel camera, accelerometer, A2DP (stereo bluetooth), and WLAN.
As feature-rich as the E66, it looks like there's always room for some downsides: the biggest seems to be the battery, which even at a rated 1000 mAh / 7.5 hours of battery life, doesn't seem to actually get anywhere near that number in actual usage. You could get away from this by turning off 3G, lowering some display settings, etc, but what's the point? Another minor gripe is the addition of a 2.5mm audio jack - why put in A2DP but not the ubiquitous 3.5mm standard stereo plug?
