Diary: Going S60 on the E71

So, as many of you know I’m a tiny bit of an iPhone fan. I spend a lot of time on my iPhone reading and writing emails, checking RSS feeds and all kinds of other stuff. You may also know that just a short while ago we had a review unit come in for a Pantech Matrix Pro and that came to me. I did the best I could, and while I loved the hardware, after a year+ of iPhone OS I couldn’t handle the pitfalls of WinMo… So I sent my review unit to Doug.

Doug, as all of you know is a Winmo guy. Well who knows why, but he went out and bought himself a Nokia E71 NAM around the same time I got the Pantech. As luck would have it, Doug didn’t really like S60… So here we were two people with two bits of hardware we loved but OS’s we just didn’t.

We may not be rocket scientists, but luckily it didn’t require them for us to figure out that maybe we should swap and see if that worked out better. Doug has had the Matrix Pro for a few days now so I’m sure you’ll see his impressions coming soon. I on the otherhand just got the E71 yesterday… And I’m lost.

So if you’re an S60 fan, I’d love to hear how you’re making the OS work for you. I’ve got some cool stuff setup already, but any tips and tricks you’ve got I wanna hear em…

oh… And i typed and published this whole post on the E71. The keyboard isn’t too shabby….
