Nokia E66 - Pre Review

Hey kiddos,

Just got the Nokia E66 in for review, and at first impression I'm loving this little guy.

The Nokia E66 is a business-centric phone which keeps along the E-series Nokia lineup with spetacular metal build quality and the ability to tackle business e-mail, calendar, contact syncs like a champ. Specs at the bottom of the page.

First impressions:

1. Size is very nice.
2. voice reception is typical Nokia (good)
3. accelerometer is very cool
4. customization (themes, slider etc...) is also very cool

Will give a more in depth review when I spent a few days with the phone.

Let me know if you have any questions I'll try to clear up.
