Nokia's E66 Slides onto the Business Market

Snapshot by Ricky Cadden on Monday June 16, 2008.

Today the Nokia E66 officially joined the ranks of the business-oriented Eseries device from the Finnish manufacturer. This slender slider offers dedicated shortcut keys to contacts, calendar, and messaging, and also features a new dual home screen, with both business and personal views.

The Nokia E66 measures in at 107mm x 49mm x 13mm (4.2" x 1.9" x 0.5") and sports a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and video recording. A microSD card slot offers plenty of extra storage, as well. The Nokia E66 also includes built-in A-GPS and comes with Nokia Maps preloaded for out of the box navigation.

The Nokia E66 offers quad-band GSM/EDGE (850/900/1800/1900MHz) support and will be available in three different dual-band UMTS/HSDPA variants (850/1900MHz, 900/2100MHz, and 850/2100MHz). WiFi support offers a zippy data as a backup when there is no 3G service available.

The Nokia E66 is planned to be available Q3 of 2008 for an estimated 350EUR before taxes and subsidies. The E66 will also be available in two colors: grey and white steel.
