The new Nokia Eseries devices announced by Nokia today are built on the Symbian operating system v9.1 and Series 60 3rd Edition software platform. BlackBerry Connect will enable customers to use their Nokia Eseries device in conjunction with industry-leading BlackBerry wireless services, including support for both BlackBerry Enterprise Server and BlackBerry Internet Service.
BlackBerry Connect supports a variety of email systems including Microsoft Exchange (v3.5 and higher), IBM Lotus Domino (v2.1 and higher) as well as many popular ISP email services.
BlackBerry Connect and the BlackBerry platform together provide a powerful and proven wireless solution that addresses the distinct architectural and operational requirements of carriers and enterprises while enabling an optimized wireless experience for users. With support for Nokia Series 60 3rd edition, RIM will provide carriers and customers around the world with a broader choice of BlackBerry-enabled devices to address the expanding market demand for wireless email services.
Okey, these new phones use Wi-Fi is 802.11g and Nokia promises you will be able to make VOIP calls over Wi-Fi.
Do you need a business VOIP system (PBX systems from Cisco or Avaya) to make VoIP calls then? These phones are business VOIP solutions, not Skype consumer phones - right / wrong?
Nokia has said it will launch VoWLAN or hybrid phones for business use - is it the Eseries they were talking about?
