I was planning to buy the E71…
BlackBerry Bold 9000
but then I saw this:
It seems Nokia has got everything covered except for Blackberry Connect support. The company has announced that since they are offering a push email service similar to that of Blackberry Connect, they are now direct competitors and as such, they would no longer offer Blackberry Connect support starting of Nokia E71 and E66.
It’s a really odd decision and it clearly shows that selling their email service to end customers is more important to Nokia than selling their handhelds. While this may sound perfectly reasonable to Nokia marketing department, it might turn out as a deal-breaker to some potential E71 buyers.
And the folks at GSM Arena are right. That’s a deal-breaker. BlackBerry Bold, here I come!
Advt.
