As a long-time Sports Tracker user, N95 enthusiasts, and evangelist of all things mobile and geospatial, I was provided with a pre-release version of viNe - details and a complete "How To" install and use the application are provided... enjoy!

It was back in June 2008 that the E71 was officially released to the public - the selling points for the E71 were a sleek, stylish do-it-all device that came with Mail for Exchange mobile email client - pre-loaded with the Nokia E71. Actually, the device boasted much much more than these attributes as you'll see below in my findings after having the pleasure of making the E71 my main device for 3 weeks... enjoy the recap, the images and the videos!

WorldMate Professional for S60, vital information including flight schedules and
status, weather forecasts and currency exchange rates can be integrated into Nokia
E90 Communicator and other Nokia Eseries business devices.

of our business travel services. Through working with Nokia we are able to introduce
them to WorldMate and further increase the value they get from their Nokia Eseries
business devices," stated Nadav Gur, MobiMate's CEO.
