Mobile devices, like the E71 are rendering some laptops obsolete. I use my E71 for almost ALL my business now. I have sold several £700 products using a combination of the E71 (for figures and some images) and an (cough) iPod Touch. (The Touch is in fact excellent - credit where due.)

And refuse to be handicapped from the rest of the world no more. A friend got a Apple HD mediaplayer recently as a presentfor me, an HD player without HDMI connector, no MKV support, most DivX files won't play etc, unless you down licensed stuff and movies from Apple store, and they have a hideous collection and quality. Tried to use it, gave up after 3 days, got the the Tvix 6500, now the Apple is in my closet under som shoe boxes. I'm free to download whatever i want, any format, any software i want, i am free.

BE FREE BROTHER!! REFUSE TO BE A PRISONER TO THE MEDIOCRE APPLE CORPORATION!

I have a European version of E71. I downloaded the Nokia Software Updater (I'm a MAC user) but it kept telling me the file wasn't compressed...then I read from NOKIA's FAQ section that the Nokia Software Updater is not supported for MAC & only for Windows XP/Vista. WTF?!!

Is there a way to compress the file to enable use for MAC? Pls. help.

Thanks in advance.

I have nokia E61i Indonesian version, and it can't display chinese character in web browser, SMS client. I fix this by changing the product code from Indonesia to ASPAC with NSS (nokia software service).

So my wild guess on the chinese language improvement on europe firmware would be you can browse chinese language web site on the internet with web browser (and/or SMS).

That my wild guess....

I think they also added a really nice new email notification sound! In fact this is the best thing about the update!

> In reply to verybias @ 2009-01-14 14:20 from uS@%It’s laughable yet predictable how you chose not to answer the questions I asked you and instead resorted to saying you even have a an N82 which is neither nor there.

How can you be pissed off that gsmarena provided a change log for an E71 firmware update?, yet the E71 is Nokia’s most popular business/email oriented phone. It has a large following that will benefit form the news. Like I said before you need to engage your brains before typing, that way you can spare yourself the embarrassment of making comments that are pathetic to say the least.

You continually go on and on about how gsmarena is biased towards Nokia without substantiating your thoughts. However, no one is holding a gun to your head forcing you to visit gsmarena, after all there are numerous competitor websites to gsmarena. Or better yet, why don’t you start your own website that will carry all the Samsung and Sony Erricson news that your are craving for, seeing domain names are now as cheap as $15…………

Please show me one LG, Samsung or SE phone with update, which improves camera quality, fixes many bugs and adds new software. ONE!!! Or... may be you can find one, hard... Then - show me second. I challenge you.

I told you once why GSMArena wrote this article and pointed you a link to SE update news. What evidence you need more?!

Next thing - to all who WANT LINK TO UPDATE - THERE IS NO LINK AND NO UPDATE IN INTERNET. YOU CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO YOUR PC, RUN SOFTWARE NOKIA UPDATER AND IT WILL FINISH THE REST. OK?
