Mobile Release

Vodafone are showing off some of their Q3/Q4 line up, with some of the hottest mobile phones posing provocatively on their “coming soon” page with an October release date.

The Nokia E72 is the latest remodelling of their popular productivity-focussed Eseries devices, bringing a full QWERTY keyboard, a robust messaging client and a great compliment of media functionality.

Enhancements over the highly successful Nokia E71 include a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, 3.5mm audio jack, and A-GPS if lost on the way to the latest leadership meeting.

The office capabilities have been updated with a new version of Quickoffice, which delivers Microsoft Office 2007 compatibility, and instant messaging support is available to getting chatting as soon as you clock off.

Available from October, the Nokia E72 is an exciting addition to the range, and is sure to be the flagship handset for those bored by Blackberry and intimidated by the iPhone.

The new Nokia E72 handles the lucrative mobile messaging device market, offering unrivalled support for e-mails, instant messaging and blazing fast 10.2 Mbps web connection.

Taking a cue from the impressive Nokia E71, the E72 is a equally strong multimedia device offering a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, an optical mouse for scrolling and menu navigation, and a 3.5mm audio jack.

In at a svelte 10mm, the E72 is an panacea to all of those chunky multimedia devices clogging up boardrooms and bistros, and even comes with an enhanced version of QuickOffice with Office 2007 compatibility.

With a release date of 12th October 2009 on Expansys, the Nokia E72 will cost around €350 (a shade under £300) SIM-free, with E72 deals to follow in due course.

The Nokia E72 capitalises on the desire for the all-in-one messaging device, improving on the quality QWERTY keyboard of the original E71 whilst combining the stylings of earlier E-series entries.

Improving upon the E71 with faster web browsing, a 5 megapixel autofocus camera (as opposed to 3.1), a 3.5mm headphone jack and improved compatibility with Microsoft Office 2007, the Nokia E72 aims to address all and any shortcomings levelled at the precursor.

With a new optical navi key for easier scrolling through menus and integrated GPS, the Nokia E72 looks to be an important advancement in the smartphone biz for the Finnish manufacturer, with a Q3 release and €350 price tag announced.
