Nokia today announced a new S60 Eseries smartphone - the E50. The Nokia E50 is a quad-band phone (EGSM 850/900/1800/1900) and features (optionally) a 1.3 megapixel camera, a MP3 music player, upto 6 hours of talk time, a suite of business applications, support for remote device management, support for integration into existing enterprise PBXs and support for all major push email solutions.

Looks like a nice device, the size is impressive. Looks like Nokia are starting to nail down the software package too. Would be good to a consumer targeted equivalent.

They're finally starting to produce some devices capable of prizing all those execs off their 6310i's 😊

I notice that it has Pro Tour Golf built into it, which was one of the Next Gen N-Gage games announced at E3. It seems that they might be planning to sell games to businesspeople too... :tongue:

(EDIT: My mistake, the game at E3 was Pro Series Golf. Are they related etc.)

I suspect that this may be the most important S60 device yet even though it seems a bit boring and probably wont appeal much to people here or on other smartphone based forums. What people forget that Nokia already are big in the corporate market for phones (as opposed to PDA based smartphones where the industry keeps saying that Microsoft will win) and I can see this fitting the bill as direct replacement unit for the ones they currently offer. This could get the S60 in behing the IT managers back without them even noticing.
