    "Pretty good phone, but with too many compromises"

    by swrobel on November 13, 2008

    Pros: - Beautiful design
    - Extremely think (perhaps too thin?)

    Cons: - Keys are rounded and my fingers slip from one to the next - a lot of mistypes
    - Camera is horrible in all but the best light, flash is useless
    - No 3.5mm jack!
    - S60 feels antiquated, the "dual homescreens" feature is marketing snake oil

    Summary: Mail for Exchange works well enough, but the built-in search chokes with over 100 e-mails in my inbox. This just doesn't feel like the enterprise device it's supposed to be.

    I'm getting a Blackberry...

    I concur. Not sure what email needs the CNET staff have, but if they traded their Blackberries for an E71 for 2 weeks, the review would have been much lower.

    Stay away from the "Peril" devices or you will find a whole world of great services and programs just beyond your fingertips. The acillies heal of RIM.
