You might want your boss to spring for one these. This is the good-looking Nokia E90 Communicator which got its official launch today at 3GSM. And it’s as good looking an ‘all-in one’ business device as you’ll get.
Key features include Quad band, GSM, HSDPA and WiFi. It sports a 3.2MP camera with auto-focus and flash as well as a second VGA camera on the inside for video calls. The big display is also a plus by allowing you to view the full width of Web pages and the keypad looks like it can be used by people with fingers larger than a 4-year old.
There’s also an FM radio, video player and MP3 functionality, a handy mini-USB slot for easier hook-ups and don’t forget Nokia Maps for making sure corporate jet-setters can find their way safely from the hotel to the lap-dancing bar and back. Due out in Q2.
The unsubsidised price is around £500 but I can’t see too many people buying this without a contract. -Martin Lynch

The question is.. Does it have a vibrate function...
Yes it does.
I have read all the articles and reviews but nowhere does it mention if it has a hands free speakerphone.
Does it?
Yes it does have a speakerphone
does this hanset have a blackberry feature?
Yes it does have an instant messaging which uses the same functionality as the blackberry.
Does it really do video calling - and is it any good? Also, I have heard the screen is big enough that you can watch movies on an extra memory card really easily - is this true?
Can you tell me how the speakerphone works,do you have to open it up or can you just press the answer button the front and hold it down until the speakerphone comes on.??
can anyone please tell me when is it going to officcially launch in INDIA
I'm using black berry pearl, and would love to switch to E90 because of its gr8 features.
In the blurb, this device ticks all my boxes - does anyone know when it will be launched in the UK and what sort of contract might I expect to get on Vodafone?
Can I connect the E90 to a projector? Does it have a video out socket? And would it need a special adaptor?

sunit - india
O2 say it'll be available with them in the first week of July.
Looks grear except 1 review on production model claiming the camera button to be exttremely problematic. I don't know if this has been resloved.
Its quite beautiful. I am concerned about battery life - it would take a considerable amount of juice to run a screen that big .
Two things on the wishlist
* all over the body there should have been small solar cells to passively and continually keep trickle charging the battery - believe me i use the 6300 which is a small nokia and the only bugbear i have with that splendid little piece of technology is the battery life. So clearly these lovely screens eat up power like Bush eating up patience and goodwill.
* Touch screen - would have loved one in addition to the existing features.
While at it, they should have thrown in a lazer pointer, universal remote control and an optical scanner which would scan lines and images from magazines and books one gets to read here and there :-))))) of course, I jest - but surely, someone from Samsung will come out with the "All in One" soon ?
can some one tell me when will this phone will be launched in uk. i went 2 the o2 shop a couple of months ago n they said that it would be 1 st week of july n now when i went there today they were talkin about end of september.CAN SOME GIVE ME A CLUE WHEN WILL IT BE ACTUALLY LAUNCHED
E90 released on 02 16th July 2007 according to sales team.
Can I delete a single entry on the Dialed number list.
Hi do you know the E90 is able to send HTML or Rich text type of emails with font color change possibility? thanks
