Advantages: Lots of feature including Wifi capability

Disadvantages: Small text

When my company implemented the No camera phone policy, I decided to get the E61 after going through Nokia's long list of phones. The E61 fits well on my palm & since my fingers are long, I can easily operate it with one hand. I like the big screen which is useful when viewing documents & browsing. Phone response is fast enough ( faster than the Nokia N73). The QWERTY keyboard style is small & I typically use my finger nail to select the keys. The 16 million colour screeen is nice & clear when displays pictures/videos well. Speaker output is clear & I quite often use the Speaker phone for conversations. Music output is good but still lack the standard of the N-series speakers.

Wifi function is a plus for this camera.

I bought an external GPS receiver & installed a map software. No actual navigation yet but provides tracking.

Overall, I find this phone to be very user frienly & highly suitable for people on the go when wants most of the bellS & whistle but a camera.

Summary: A very handy smartphone minus the camera
