I cannot compare to other current models cuz I dunno about them, but I really like the e71. The keyboard is fine, am getting used to it. A lot of people are recommending the phone. It's really elegant as well, and I agree with Mark that it has a considerably fast operating system. Good functionality as far as I think.

Is it still worth it to buy the e71 now, or is there a better Nokia? I wanted to try out the e-series, and I really like the e71. They say the e66 is almost identical, only it is slide and does not have qwerty keyboard. So, the question is, if I want a Nokia that's good for messaging, has wi-fi, and good GPS, should I get the e71, e66, or what else? Isn't the e71 keyboard a bit annoying or too small? How's the e71, Mark, now that you've had it for a while? Thanks. I really appreciate the help. Quick question… Is it still worth it to buy the e71 now, or is there a better Nokia?

How’s the e71, Mark, now that you’ve had it for a while?

Thanks. I really appreciate the help.

For the jumping service, check if you have set the Carrier to auto instead of Zain or wataniya.. It'll make sure that it will have something to jump to incase one went out of coverage. I tried that with my iphone and it worked, had the same problem when i set the Carrier to Zain.. Hey guys thanks for your replies..

I have seen one in their Fahaheel showroom (showroom piece, not for sale). Their price is KD. 128/-. But earlier one guy from Safat showroom called me and said to wait for 15 days and price is KD. 122/-. Either case Alghanim is cheaper. But their warranty is from i2. Wait till Alghanim brings more!
