Nokia E90 Communicator Unlocked Phone with 3.2 MP Camera, 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, Media Player, and MicroSD

The phone is good for documents, pictures, videos, web surfing, and all the main functions that don't require a internet connection. If you rely heavily on email then I would suggest the blackberrys instead. The email settings on the E90 is poor, you can only set it to recieve every 30 mins or might have to sync it manually. Over all phone rating is a 8/10 and the email software is a 1/10.

My only complaint is that I haven't been able to get the VOIP features working yet, but I'm pretty sure that's my fault, not the fault of the E90. Voice quality is great on T-Mobile, and (contrary to the complaint of the previous reviewer) email works great and can be synchronized down to every five minutes. I use both the regular email for my GMail account and the blackberry connect software for my corporate account, and they work without fail.

Battery life is better than I expected, and usability is excellent. One problem is the phone's size... it's a little bit of a brick, but you can't have this much convergence without a small sacrifice of size. It's much smaller and lighter than the previous combination of iPod Nano/cell phone/laptop that it replaced.

My reason for buying the Nokia E90 was to combine a cellphone and my Palm Zire 72 organizer into one unit. I had a pretty good idea going in what I was looking for in a smartphone; full qwerty keyboard with independent number keys (easier to read), easy to read screen, able to fit in my pocket if necessary. Most of the devices oferred by the major cell service providers had numerous fatal flaws. Some were too wide to be held in the hand comfortably as a phone or fit in my pocket, some had keyboards that were too hard to read and too cramped. And being a mac guy I was not at all sold on windows mobile.

After looking at dozens of phones and hundreds of reviews I ended up with the Nokia and I have no regrets at all. I won't go into technical specs that are better reviewed by experts, but I will mention a few nice features. One of the things that surprises me most about this device is the degree to which it is customizable. For example, go to "profiles" and you can select the outdoor setting to get a loud ring and vibrate. Select the meeting setting to get a single beep. No more scrolling from loud ring to silent while everybody can hear you. All of the profile setting are completely customizable. I also like the fact that the device can lay flat with the screen tilting up allowing you to use fingers (if you're at your desk) or the screen can lay flat allowing the use of thumbs if you are standing. A few more nice surprises: when the alarm sounds, it starts softly and gradually increases in volume; in calendar it automatically makes the next letter a capital after a period; it's possible to check your email with one hand using the front screen only.
