VODAFONE BUSINESS EMAIL NOW AVAILABLE ON NEW 3G NOKIA E61


From today, the new email-friendly design of the E61 from Nokia spearheads the range of compatible devices on Vodafone Business Email. First to market from Vodafone UK, the Nokia E61 broadens the choice of handsets compatible with Vodafone Business Email to over 25.

This new device follows in the footsteps of popular handsets in the Vodafone Business Email range such as the Vodafone v1640, the Nokia 9300 and the HP iPAQ HW6510, and presents business customers with a simplified and integrated push email experience. With QWERTY keyboard, 3G and large user memory it combines the convenience and familiarity of a traditional mobile phone with the sophistication of a powerful “PDA-like” device.

“The Nokia E61 together with Vodafone Business Email delivers a compelling mobile email service,” said Mark Bond, Director of Enterprise Marketing for Vodafone UK. “We expect this combination, not only to set a benchmark, but also to capture the imagination of business customers and encourage a broader adoption of mobile email.”
