@Brym: I have olive tree bible software with three bible versions on my E50, and its exactly the same as was on my iPaq so I don't think the platform makes the bible reader any different.
Well amby, I only knew when I ran the app on Palm, WM and Symbian UIQ devices. The difference was not in the Bible versions but in the interface and navigation options. Though running on top of Olive Tree the app was actually designed for WM and Palm and so the embedded illustrations, graphics and maps only show on these devices.

Has anyone seen the review of the just announced E71 at AllAboutSymbian? We've been expecting the E71 for so long and then Nokia throws that at us? In my book, the E71 is just as much a disappointment as the E90 was.
I read the review today and I think it is quite an improvement for an E series Nokia. The shrunk size is to meet up with current enterprise standards. So, what is disappointing about it?

Yes, it is an imprivement on the E61i at least. But note the following:
- The S60 implementation used is still a little under-powered at times, most notably when opening images and playing back videos (jerky playback). In this day and age?
- Gallery is the same tired old application as in S60 devices three years ago. That dull layout!
- Messaging - another application long overdue for an update - is largely unchanged from earlier devices. Attachment support, sorting, etc are issues.
- stripped down version of the camera on the E90, with comparatively cheap optics and sensor. Its the same megapixel, but performs worse.
I like the phone. I may end up with one. My company may even kit some of our staff with a few units. I just keep asking why these manufacturers keep letting simple issues be carried over on a device that's coming out 2 years after its older sibling. That's disappointing.

@O'Yom: Nearly all device manufacturers are guilty of this, that is why there will never be perfect devices. To be fair to them, they take alot of factors into consideration in designing these devices and you truly cannot meet all the requirements of your target market.

True, but that just sucks though. That's why consumers will keep getting disappointed again and again.

Speaking on Reltel Promo. Is anybody familiar with the samsung ip-830w? The internet said it is a CDMA/GSM Combo, is that true? How does it hold up. I also heard that it has loads of problems? Any experience?!
Meanwhile I got the reltel Mogul and I think it is the best thing to happen to telephony in Nigeria! HTC Mogul for N20,000+2 weeks of free internet access!? Thumb up for reltel.
The bad part is that Reltel is pure rubbish in Ibadan. The network regularly disappear for hours and sometimes days. How can they be taken seriously with that kind of mediocre performance! Reltel-Ibadan, please sit up or one day, I will change the ESN of my mogul and move over to Onet.

I heard about this sometime ago but that was a Windows CE device.
I read the review, it is quite bulky, runs on WM5 and comes with a down-sliding qwerty keypad.
Is Reltel offering this in the promo too?
Meanwhile I got the reltel Mogul and I think it is the best thing to happen to telephony in Nigeria! HTC Mogul for N20,000+2 weeks of free internet access!? Thumb up for reltel.
You are beginning to tempt me.

No intention to tempt. But Check out the value; A windows mobile 6 (6.1 if you are brave to put new unsupported firmware) phone with wifi (b/g), gps, 512Mb micro SD, 64mb ram, 256mb rom, 2.0 bluetooth, size of nokia n95, 2mp camera with flash, 2 weeks of browsing (on the phone and on your laptop, all cables included) all for N20,000! It is a steal! I have had it for two weeks and I think it is rock solid.
What I need reltel to do now is to give me a pay as you go internet access and everything will be perfect.

@adrusa: I am quite familiar with the specs of the Mogul having read several reviews of the device when I was contemplating to buy one early this year. But O'yom who dropped his Retel Treo a couple of weeks earlier gave a bad report of Reltel's data service.
If I am right, the 'pay as you go' internet service is more expensive, why not choose a data plan?
