Nokia Launches New S60 Email Client
First, acquiring Intellisync in 2005. Then, ended Blackberry collaborations for Nokia E series handset. And now, finally Nokia unleashed their prototype for Email client. The Nokia Email (beta) currently available for the latest S60 3rd edition. For now it is only can be setup for one account, yet probably in the future we can use it to login to multiple accounts.
Nokia Email is currently a free mobile e-mail solution that works with any e-mail account you throw at it (as long as it’s not Hotmail and corporate e-mail - support for those will come at a later date). However, when it comes out of beta testing phase, it will become a subscription-based service, for which you have to pay certain fees depending on which package you choose and what network you’re using it on. Unfortunately, Nokia e-mail only supports the following handsets at this time’s writing: Nokia E51, E61, E61i, E65, E66, E71, N73, N80, N81, N81 8GB, and N95

New E series such as the E71, E66, etc will not be receiving a working Blackberry Connect application. There are still some options for receiving push (or rather, near-push) email on your S60-powered smartphone, though.
A lovely sentence from Nokia’s Simon Ainslie “RIM are a competitor and have done a reasonable job in a space that is traditionally ours, so it’s no great surprise that we see this as an opportunity to give consumers a proper choice on what email solution they want.”
Nokia Email: Push Email Service from Nokia
Here comes another freeware for Nokia users. This new service is called the Nokia Email and is available for free. It seems that it is a step from Nokia to rival the BlackBerry devices’ push email service. The Nokia Email promises to bring push email to the Nokia using people. To use it you just sign up over at the Nokia Email site and you will be sent a download link to the S60 3rd Edition app. The app runs on the E51 E61 E61i E65 E66 E71 E90 N73 N80 N81 8GB and N95 handsets and can work with
