Connecting to Google&#8217;s e-mail service was also a snap. Like the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackberry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BlackBerry<\/a> , the E61 has a full Qwerty keyboard. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">But, unlike the BlackBerry, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nokia.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nokia<\/a> supports 3G and Wi-Fi. With Wi-Fi, provided there&#8217;s a wireless hotspot nearby, you can browse the Internet for a lot less than you&#8217;d pay using your cellphone provider&#8217;s inflated data tariffs. Within a short time I had downloaded the mobile version of the Opera Web browser and was surfing the Internet on 3G. Diary management is also fantastic, with full integration with Microsoft Outlook. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\">You can even use the E61 to edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents. In fact, I am so impressed with this device that I&#8217;ve ordered one for myself. For anyone who needs regular access to their e-mail and to the Web and manages an electronic diary, Nokia&#8217;s E61 is the answer.\u00a0<\/font> <\/p>\n<p><font size=\"2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/vb\/showthread.php?t=55137\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Discuss this article<\/a> <br \/>\u00a0 <br \/><i>Financial Mail<\/i> <\/font><\/p>\n<p \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research in Motion (RIM), the Canadian company that makes the iconic BlackBerry device, should be worried.
