The Nokia E7

I’ve been very fortunate to review the Nokia E7 recently for All About Symbian (see my parts of the AAS mega review here and here). My job was to review specific aspects of the software suite, not the hardware. However, before I sent it back to Steve Litchfield, I decided to grab some photos of the device. There are photos of the device by itself, and with other devices I have here at Gilson Towers.

So, if you’re curious about this next-generation Nokia Communicator, then read on to look through my photo gallery below. I’ll be posting these to Flickr in time, but the first exclusive look is here on my blog

I am stalking you for an answer posted in Comments to the 4th part of the AAS review:
You wrote:”Supported event types are Meetings, Anniversaries and To-Do list items” I asked: What has happened to Memo? a useful feature from S60 (and before).
I would be surprised and disappointed if the diary options are even more restricted than S60 v 3 or 5.
The E7 manual pdf doesn’t inform me. Another website review says the same as yours but this may be plagarism!

  Hi there,
  I’m really sorry I missed your question on AAS.
  As said in this post, I’ve sent the E7 back to Steve Litchfield. However, I’ve just checked my C7 review unit against a Nokia 5530. I can confirm the Memo option is gone. Sorry!
  
  The best substitute I can suggest is an all day event with a note attached.

    Yes you are right – I now have the E7 – and what used to be Memo in S60 is now an All Day Event in S^3.
    You dont need to apologise for missing my original post on AAS, it was buried amongst all the trolling and feuding – which the site seems to attract. Regards

well, i do think you will find that as Nokia phones become more user-friendly with the help of google, all these features will be included in the future-phones to come.
