E-mobilized…an addendum…
Lately, I got a hold of a N70. I was just curious on what the differences are as compared to my other series 60 phone with regards to browsing the net, checking e-mail, using Y! Go etcetera. And of course not to mention the other built-in add-on features the phone has.
On using the unit, I get to do the same as with my 6600 (only with a clearer and more crisp
display, moreover, using a HS-31 headset along with the built-in radio and mp3 player delivers music entertainment in stereo, programs which could be easily handled by the phone running in the background, and which completely takes over the iPod’s role as a media player, which means less bulk for the pocket. And of course video in high settings are in stereo. It now has a 2 mega pixel camera which captures pictures/video far more better. Applications load faster and web pages as well. Overall, it is a series 60 phone which loads faster, has a larger storage capacity, clearer camera, stereo sounds and basically running almost the same programs as of the 6600.
Another thing was trying out the Y! Go feature which is supported by the phone. About the program, it really eats a lot of bandwidth as it takes quite a while to load and pan through options. I guess it needs a faster connection though that would depend on my service provider’s technology which is by far the best, at least here in the Philippine Islands and in my opinion. Going back to the program, maybe I haven’t searched enough but I can’t see Yahoo Messenger chat applet in it. Though I could access my mail and other yahoo applications such as flickr and the "weather", "maps"…etcetera but I could easily do that with opera browser and ebuddy applet. For me, nothing still beats the ebuddy/opera mini combo.
As with the phone unit, no question about its functionality except a lack for a number of eye candy other handsets have. But overall, the phone gets the job done especially when it comes to video/photo/music and its connectivity features. The new thing with this unit is that the opera browser does not hang when I download pictures. So in other words, it is a better more compact way of receiving news, whether it be personal/local/international while enjoying your music collection, everything done with class and style… This would definitely fit in my wish list this yuletide season.
