Nokia E72?

[crackerjack911]

Now that the E72 has been released for sale on newegg and nokia usa, any first impressions compared to the 9700?

[SiFO]

not worth it. My dad has it and its not that 'oh my wow'

nokia is 5 years behind, only thing i like about nokias is the cameras

[crackerjack911]

How about just for messaging and phone calls?

Compared to a bold, i don't the e72 has much on it. Stick with your bold

[SiFO]

not worth it .. stick with Bold. thats coming from a person that owned 30+ nokia devices

[crackerjack911]

idk..i'm leaning towards the e72 because i did have the e71 before and loved it for rf reception and build quality.. hard decision gosh

The E72 is a stellar device and trying to compare it to any BlackBerry is futile.
There is no BlackBerry that can touch it. I have relegated my BB to personal use
and use my E71x for business. First chance I get I am moving to the E72.

How are the apps system for nokia vs blackberry now? I haven't had a nokia in some time.

been looking at the E72 myself as i have an upgrade due in january

could you outline why its great for business use as i havent used an e series handset only the N series which i wasnt too happy with.

Does this phone only stream things like hulu.com through skyfire browser or is there some native app I have yet to discover?

[crackerjack911]

I dont think the e72 will be released on a major carrier for quite a while given the evidence from the e71 release on at&t. I think e series are great for email and messaging since the e-line is so dedicated to messaging versus multimedia.

e72 is much faster then the e71.

I am also intrigued with your opinion that the E71x and E72 are better devices than BBs. I do like the looks of them, but I have seen some reviews pinning them against BBs and the reviewer has always chosen the BB as a better device. But I would like to hear from someone who actually owns one. From the specs, I don't see much of a difference with the exception of screen resolution and OS. I like that they are really thin and the e71 for AT&T was priced at just under a hundred dollars. If you could give me some specifics, I would appreciate it.

I prefer the keyboard on E72. Overall E72 has a slight edge over 9700

Yeah, that's a matter of taste. I love the keyboard on the Bold. I really like the look of the Nokia but it just doesn't seem to be as good. Plus, there isn't a US carrier that has the device yet, which means to buy it unlocked you will have to pay an arm and a leg. You can get a better device in the 9700 for a lot cheaper price. I do like how thin the Nokia is. I wonder what is so bad about the optical trackpad. How is it different from the BB trackpad?
