Another push mail for the Nokia e61i in the offing called emoze. I did try emoze before but in order to do so server or pc side software was required to be downloaded besides the phone software. This required your laptop or pc to be constantly on and actually killed the purpose of push mail on the go.

Apparently now they are coming with an independent solution lets see how that takes off no solution for e61i yet.

Will be doing a review of their current service and get back to you.

Meanwhile Mail for Exchange still rocks!

After using the Nokia e61i for a month I thought I wil give you a hands on experience to clear other users apprehensions to upgrade or not. I will comment only on noticeable differences not indulge in complete detailed hardware and software specs. Physical differences (Part 1) 

Design 

Nokia e61i design wise is much more superior to e61 with its silver and mocha combination. Compared to the e61 with its joypad and all silver plastic material this one looks more beautiful and sleeker in this color combo. The all silver D PAD with silver smooth rim like edges enhances the design value and somehow makes it look more sleeker. My uncle was holding it next to his ear and for the 1st time I saw another view as I had not seen anyone holding it except for me. Obviously I cannot see how it looks in that view. The silver and mocha combo with the silver edges around the camera eye really made me feel like a proud owner. The phone from the side looks slimmer due to the fact that the black part gives an illusion of one looking only at the silver edges   

Key Pad 

Key Pad is much more responsive, better spaced and raised perfectly. Text input has become much faster though I have to keep cuttings my nails every week instead of 2 weeks. 

D Pad 

It takes a couple of hours to get used to it. But trust me when I say it is a vast improvement in navigation then the joy pad. I am a heavy user of the phone to the extent that I do not open my laptops at times. The joypad used to make my thumb ache after a while thosedays are gone now the D PAD make the navigation experience much smoother and no more thumb aches. Thank you Nokia. 

Additional Buttons 

Additional button that is own key and contacts are fine but they do not add much value to the operation to the phone in my opinion. Again the symmetry and the alignment of the buttons next to the D PAD makes the area much more complete and finished. So design wise their is a definite improvement in that area. 

Alert Sensor The alert sensor in the Nokia e61i keeps blinking as you can manage its settings to blink for a set period of time. Now you can hardly ever miss an email, sms or call. 

Power On Button 

Is now in white with an orange circle which makes it more defined and blends in with the phone yet stands out. 

Embossed 

The addition of embossed e61i makes Nokia the logo complete. 

Camera 

After using e61 for 1 whole year (longest I have ever had a phone) I keep forgetting that the Nokia e61i has a camera but when I do remember it gives me an additional satisfaction. I have taken a few pictures and videos which I will add later and I must add they are not bad at all. 

Sound Speaker 

Sound speaker seems much better and the various tones sound more melodious then the Nokia e61 

Physical Verdict: 7/10%

Improvement: 70%

Will cover noticeable difference in software in part 2

Lots of people still have problems configuring to Push email on their Nokia e61i. I love the mail for exchange solution and I thought I will share it with everyone especially first timers who want to install push mail now.

This will take 15 minutes so make sure you are free while doing this the rewards are plenty

This is the alternative for Blackberry connect the difference is you don’t rely on
the operator.

All you need is a free mail for exchange email account and mail for exchange software.

Mail2web setup
1st of all register mail2web for a live email account that can be
anything. Remember this is important as you will be using this email account settings.

Once you have setup an account on mail2web install the mail for exchange software
preferably through the catalog, download area or business software link on your
phone. After installation you will now configure the software. Open mail for exchange
software go into new or add profile connections. Go into server and write
mobile.exchange.mail2web.com and save it.

Next go to connections either choose your wifi connection in my case it is mobmasti
or choose your active operator access point that you use to connect to gprs in my case i.e Telenor.
Save all this info.

Next go into credentials and insert you username this is the complete email address that you got
for mail2web. In password enter your mail2web password and in server type ad2.

Save all your setting that’s it you are done setting up push
email on your phone. Make sure to enter delay time in sync mode that comes when you
open mail4exchange. For now keep it always online.

Send a test email to your mail2web account if all is fine you should receive an email.

Congratulations that will be your 1st push mail on mail.

The next question that will come into your mind but how do I get other emai account on my push
email. Simple forward a copy of all your emails to the mail2web email account.
You will start receiving full fledge push email.
