savramesh 37 Report post Posted April 15, 2009 The Economic Times 15 Apr 2009, 0215 hrs IST NEW DELHI: Nokia, the world’s largest handset maker, will launch an e-mail platform for its mid- and high-end handsets on Wednesday as it attempts to challenge the dominance of RIM’s BlackBerry and Apple’s iPhone, both known for their better e-mail services. While Nokia is the market leader in handset sales in India by a long shot, the company so far did not have an answer to BlackBerry’s e-mail services widely used by corporates and other high-end users. Nokia will first debut its new messaging and e-mail solution on its business-oriented E-series phone E75 in India, before extending it to other E-series and N-series handsets here. At present, all of Nokia’s high-end phones fall into two camps, the E series for enterprise and corporate use and the N series for entertainment such as video, photographs and music. Currently, Nokia does not have an e-mail platform to allow its users to view e-mails from different accounts through a common client. Nokia users currently view their e-mail using its mail for exchange service, but the catch is that it supports only a single e-mail account at a time. It had also launched Nokia Messaging push e-mail service for its high-end handsets such as E71 and N95. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kshah 452 Report post Posted April 15, 2009 Nokia email is good concept, but till now it was not as stable as BB. Blackberry is very stable but very expensive too (for common email users or SME's) Hope nokia sells its services at good affordable price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted April 16, 2009 infact now vodafone even has zero rental plans for bb services in which u pay as per data charges ... it nice to see vodafone offering services for 299 when at one time they were offering it for 900-1k nokia email services at present is a good option since its free ... but when it will be paid service i think bb services will be better .. nokia email services need more updates and more time to get matured ... though there is one good advantage in nokia email service to use wifi as prefferd access point Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
