Tech and Software The E50 has almost every technology support to help you stay connected, barring WiFi. The quad-band GSM phone supports GPRS, EDGE and even 3G, though it doesn’t have a secondary video call camera. Local connectivity is taken care of by Bluetooth, IrDA and USB (via pop-port). Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR is present, but there’s no A2DP, which is one reason why I’m not rushing to buy the phone. The lack of WiFi is a bit disappointing for such a capable smartphone, but it’s price justifies it. Other than the widely available set of S60 3rd Edition applications, the E50 comes with the wonderful web browser that is the third reason why I’d simply want to run and buy this phone. Even over a normal, cheap WAP connection, this browser shows the full X/HTML web and even implements a fair bit of AJAX. I even logged in to our Tech 2.0 CMS and my WordPress blog to post stories. I love this browser. Ironically, one of the only problems I faced with the phone was also with the browser. After browsing a small number of pages (say around five pages or so), the phone beeped with an "Insufficient memory" message. The phone has around 70mb of internal memory, and still with no applications running (or installed), I can’t browse more than five pages without quitting the browser? Yeah, the pages I loaded were pretty media-heavy, but even then. Memory expansion is handled with a microSD memory card slot, hot-swappable. This E-series phone has a plentiful suite of enterprise features with support for a myriad of email systems such as ActiveSync for Microsoft Exchange, BlackBerry, Nokia’s Intellisync Wireless Email. There’s also the usual POP3/IMAP email client. And with such a beautiful browser, almost no web-based email service is out of reach. After installing the Gmail app, I don’t think there’s any bit of email (or spam) that you won’t be able to receive. |
