Bateleur1 Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Not good Speedy! A friend of mine has the Omnia and LOVES it. I have been researching phones for my upgrade and have settled on the Nokia e71 as it has amazing reviews. Check this site out: www.gsmarena.com good reviews. My E71 on it's way from my boss in Dubai - just awaiting that DHL package ....... I hope it is not going to be network locked like my brother's phone. To my knowledge (I stand to be corrected) it is illegal for Network Providers to network block cellphones. It used to be like that a few years ago but was stopped.
RABUBI Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 E71 has a k*k battery life, charged it yesterday, down to one bar today. Bluetooth is permanently on, so that might have an impact, but one day battery life is still crap.
TNT1 Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Sounds bad' date=' good excuse to get a SEX1 now though... [/quote'] Got that last night What make is that? Sony Ericsson X1http://www.sonyericsson.com/x1/index.aspx?en-gb
NotSoBigBen Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 the tall Finn says it is not 'lukittu'! BTW anyone know how you tell if a Finn is an introvert or extrovert .......

My brother has come over from Aus with his phone and can't use a simcard from our local service provider.I think that law is only in SA.

Gman1834 Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 I have an HTC Tytn II very happy almost one year old. When I upgrade I will get the same.

After a while I realised that if I switched the 3G off and only used it for web browsing then the battery lasted a few days.
Saffer Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 The E 90 is also an awesome phone. I loved mine before it was redistributed to the masses. Saffer2009-01-15 06:46:36
Jackes Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Sony Ericsson X1http://www.sonyericsson.com/x1/index.aspx?en-gb Iphone is crap, why do you think only vodacommin stock them. Omnia is very nice. But seriously consider the X1, we have one, it is a unbelievable phone and a Sony !
deanbean Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Anyone used the N96. Been looking at getting one.D
Speed Devil Posted January 16, 2009 Author Posted January 16, 2009 I seem to be a bit technically challenged today, so excuse the stupid question...On Vodacommon's website they say that the E71 does not do email. Just below that they say the email types that are supported are Nokia Intellisync wireless email, POP3, IMAP and SMTP What I would like to know is if I can access my gmail and send and receive email from the gmail site like with the iphone, X1 etc...
RABUBI Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 I am on MTN and can use the E71 to access my mweb e-mail, so unless vodacom cannot support it, you should be able to see your gmail.
Speed Devil Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 Vodacom and Vodasure have both refused to repair/replace my IphoneDoes anyone have a contact in Vodacom that I can take this matter up further with them?
