In a move that has been very long in the making, Rogers has officially acknowledged that it will be carrying the Nokia E71 in the near future. With the N95 8GB being such a huge seller, Rogers is hoping that the E71 will prove to be popular not only with consumers who are seeking a device that offers a better compromise between business and pleasure, but with people who want a great 3G smartphone that isn’t the Bold or iPhone 3G. The specs of the Rogers E71 are as follows:
- Quad-band GSM/GRSP/EDGE
- 850/1900 MHz UMTS/HSDPA (3.6 mbps)
- 114mm x 57mm x 10mm, 127g
- 128MB RAM/256MB ROM
- S60 3rd Edition FP1, Symbian 9.2
- 320 x 240 display
- 802.11b/g and aGPS
