I had a very nice dinner with several bloggers and the folks at Nokia last night and had the chance to spend some time with the Nokia E71x. I also saw the N97, but didn’t get much hands-on time yet, although I will this week. Here are some quick thoughts and answers to questions on the E71x coming to AT&T:
The real name is E71x and that is stamped in the upper right above the display. The black back cover is indeed metal and not plastic as some people have stated. The hardware is virtually the exact same as the E71 unlocked model. Unfortunately, the camera appears to be the exact same too. Still has a 2.5mm headset jack. I was hoping they would put in the standard 3.5mm type. AT&T did put LOTS of their stuff on the device (AT&T Music, AT&T Mall, bunch of crappy game samples, etc.) and many of these icons cannot even be removed or moved to a Junk folder. It looks like TeleNav is coming out with a S60 GPS navigation client as seen as AT&T GPS on the Nokia E71x.It is definitely a slick piece of hardware and I really hope it does well at just $100. Every time I have shown this device, people have wanted it so I think it is important to have it in the AT&T stores where people will get their hands on it and pick it up over bulkier other devices in the stores.
