AT&T's Nokia E71x delayed, again

Just when we thought AT&T and Nokia finally agreed to push the E71 States wide, something went wrong. Apparently, there are some problems related to email/Mail for Exchange syncing which will require a firmware upgrade. As a result, AT&T may postpone the launch for up to 8 weeks. :(

And while this is generally a sad news, we also have a good thing to share. According to Boy Genius Report, Nokia is pushing hard for $149.99 price point and it seems that will happen after all. On its side, AT&T should definitely be interested to bring Nokia’s QWERTY keyboard baby as soon as possible, as we’ve also heard it will bundle it with a $30 a month data plan.

Hopefully, we’ll at least see the Nokia E71x announced (if not released) at the upcoming CTIA in Vegas. Stay tuned…

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
