The beginning of a project always causes some difficulties. It would
seem that the purpose and objectives are set, a point of departure seems
unattainable beacon of light in a dark tunnel. The beginning of today’s
stories should be found in far-off 1996. It was then that the company
Nokia launched a new mobile ideology. The uniqueness of the event was so
great that a little over a decade ago it was difficult to believe. At
the time, yet not all gone got used to the advent of conventional mobile
phone. But while Nokia, rapidly ahead of time, enters into use totally
new concept that is finished not plunged to that the public. Finns
represented to the world communicator! Yes, namely Nokia firstly has
used this remarkable yet word. It defined the class of mobile devices
equipped with QWERTY- keyboard. And do not forget that these devices
were, in addition, mobile phones - otherwise how to get the
communication?!

Nokia 9000 was fortunate enough to be the first. This, which has become
the rarity apparatus, outwardly not much differs from conventional Nokia
cell phone of those times. Normal (for 1996) the “brick” of impressive
sizes 173×65x38 mm weighed nearly (400 g)! But it should not have
confused the owner, because when he had disclosed the phone on a manner
of laptop, as in his hands it immediately turned into… a miniature
laptop! Many of us, brought up in the XXI century of a fantastic
technique, it is difficult to believe, but the Nokia 9000 was equipped
with a full QWERTY keyboard and a great-monochrome display with a
resolution of 640 dots h200. Underlying platform lay 386 machines - and
Intel processor and a software development of its own Nokia - GEOS
operating system. However, the beauties of OSes are limited by the
preinstalled software, since communicator had no memory for the
installation of third-party software. However, the range of ROM programs
could satisfy even the most demanding business users - agree, word
processor, calculator, notepad, calendar, a full mail client and Web
browser were before the prerogative of laptops. Further development of
Nokia Communicators was enough forecasted.

Firstly appeared the renovation, which was Nokia 9000i, and then
updating model Nokia 9110, which completed the evolution itself of Nokia
GEOS operating system. The latest spiral of development have become very
popular in their time Nokia 9210 Communicator and the Nokia 9210i. These
mastodons have already been based on Symbian OS. Actually, it namely
Nokia 9210/9210i launched the platform Series 80. That communicators
were notable for its perfect functionality. The possession of color
screen that can display 4096 colors, and had permission to 640 h200
points, the ability to install third-party programs, the existence of a
functional tabular and textual processor, the ability to work with a
full- fledged Web documents, and, of course, the invariable attribute in
the person QWERTY keyboard- enabled Nokia in a time to form and
immediately take a niche of market, which until then was empty. What was
then, the majority of us know not by hearsay. The developing of Series
80 resulted in the appearance of excellent models of communicators Nokia
9300 and Nokia 9500. That devices had an excellent functionality,
opportunities for its expansion and flexibility. It is noteworthy that
the high price was not an obstacle to the maintenance of the niche of
the market, which, in fact, belonged only to Nokia. Agree, that models
did not have competitors. All that could invite opponents of Windows
Mobile devices, possessed a different ideology and different approach to
the implementation of functions.

However, it is time to finish an excursus in history, since the topic of
development of communicators in all its hypostasis is very large, and it
should be devoted to a separate material. We tried to give you the
essential minimum, which would help you to better understand our today’s
guest . And our guest was Communicator Nokia E90. In all attitudes, it
is a very interesting model, which requires not only fixed attention but
also the understanding of ideas that it laid. Well, today we have
something to talk about, so let’s proceed to a detailed discussion of
the perpetrator of celebration. But firstly we would like to warn you
about something, as it is important for the understanding of the many
features of the model. As in the closed, and opened a position Nokia E90
is a full-fledged smartphone Series 60. This is the first Nokia
Communicator, which provides similar functionality. For comparison, note
that, for instance, Nokia 9300/9500 were smartphones, that is allowed to
work with the software installed, opened only mode. When the wings were
closed they had the functionality of a conventional Nokia on the
platform Series 40. That’s it…

Complete

Nokia E90 Communicator is supplied in a big box, the design of which
clearly hints at the apparatus belonging to a business audience. Inside
the same, we can find the following:

.. Communicator Nokia E90;
.. Lithium-polymer battery BP-4L (1500 mAh);
.. wired Stereo (HS-47);
.. battery charger (AC-4);
.. USB cable (DKE-2);
.. microSD memory card at 512 Mb and the adapter to it;
.. Instruction and DVD ROM with software.

As you can see, the equipment looks not very rich. There is a lack of
cradle, which can boast of Nokia 9300. As you know, most modern
communicators, which were built on the platform of Windows Mobile or
Symbian UIQ, are equipped with stylish and comfortable stand. Agree that
the telephones of this class should not just lie on the table next to
the laptop, but gently take its place in the cradle. Well, let’s use to
synchronize a complete USB cable, which has the only plus – it’s compact
to carry. Wired Stereo is similar to what we saw at the Nokia 8600 Luna.
Its main advantage is in its impressive length of wire, that allows to
wear the phone in a bag. As for the memory card, its amount should be
sufficient, as we are seeing now the representative of the business
segment, the company Nokia. The user who buys this model is unlikely to
be used in multimedia purposes, but not one to store hundreds of
documents and photographs, complete with built-in camera memory card
should suffice. But we are no longer eager to pick up Nokia E90, and
therefore propose to postpone a set aside and begin a detailed
introduction to our hero.

Appearance. Design

The design of apparatus is made in the best traditions of the genre
Nokia Communicators of the very first, waves. It is quite natural chosen
form factor. Here we have the occasion of horizontal extra bed. This
means that the phone maximize their appearance closer to the laptop,
which gives it a hefty share of a certain style, emphasizing the
membership of a particular niche. It should be noted that, except for
Nokia, no manufacturer is not producing anything of the kind that is
also attributable to the numerous unique peculiarities of the device.

In closed state the similarity with the conventional telephone presents,
but up to a certain point. Almost everyone, who was confronted with
Nokia E90 for the first time, but did not have anything to do with any
communicators in their manifestations, suspect that this is not an
ordinary telephone. Obviously, the entire fault is in the dimensions of
the device. In the closed model dimensions are 132 mm in h57h20 and
weight is 210 g. For comparison: Nokia 9300i mass parameters h51h21mm
accounted for 132 and 172 d. Thus, the communicator apparently added
weight. This is no coincidence, since the lion’s share of the shell is
made of metal. Thus, the top of the opening half, and the battery
compartment lid, and most of the bottom half of the shell represents
castings of the alloy metals. With this increased the strength of the
assembly that adds Communicator clear advantages. In other respects the
assembling causes only delight and laudatory reviews. The covering of
hull panels is resist to the advent of scratches. At least during
testing the telephone on its surface was found the slightest hint of
paint chips. In addition, the matte metal with a slight tinge of color
fingerprints and pollution is not visible. Thus, the communicator will
look presentable maximum long, and it’s do not have to put extra effort.

Through the rectangular body and only a few corners the phone looks
quite massive. However, to visually size and delay tactics to attract
attention helps chrome bezel on the front part of the device. In closed
state the communicator is quite comfortable in the hand. Much of this is
achieved through not slippery coated shell and dished brinks of the
phone. But with long-term time of conversation the hand is still a
little tired.

Many highlight the fact that we will have to wear Nokia E90 exclusively
in a bag or briefcase. We are forced to accept this fact. First, you can
always buy a cover for carrying phone at the waist. Of course, in the
pocket of the trousers do not put, but, since business people had been
alone with this device, it would perfectly suit the internal pocket of
a jacket. So it is not so frightening, as you see.

The arrangement of the front part of Nokia E90 is fairly standard, given
that in closed state the machine is a usual smartphone. It is worth
noting only a great amount of space. To this is not obvious to the eye,
designers should consider chrome bezel, which, as we have said, really
brightenes not small sizes of the apparatus. With such findings Nokia
E90 looks quite harmoniously. At the same time digital keyboard is not
very large. Keys are located relatively close to each other, but for all
the testing time we did not have the occasion of the simultaneous
pressing a few buttons. In hitting the keyboard is quite tight,
moreover, has not a very big move. However, their response is palpable,
so you should not have the problems in dealing with them. In the dark
uniform illumination of the keyboard helps to find the button.
Incidentally, running forward, we note that the keyboard is also
equipped with internal illumination, which can turn on / off at his
discretion. Managing block is traditional for Nokia smartphones except
that the developers have removed the button “pencil”. In this case it is
not crucial, since all transactions with the text are still performed
with disclosed apparatus. Joystick is very convenient, albeit is a thin
metal bezel around inscribed with the OK button. Here we see the
familiar to us menu keys and delete the character. Slightly higher is
the display, which we will talk about later. The button of inclusion of
communicator is inscribed in chrome bezel. With its help, we
traditionally have had the opportunity to quickly change profiles. At
the top of the noticeable phone earpiece, which covered decorative ribs.
Finally, if attentively, then on the right side of border, we can see
tiny light, through which the backlight automatically regulated external
display. The upper part of Communicator is free of Governors and
decorative elements. Left Nor can boast nothing remarkable. But on the
right but found room for key is to launch the program recording. As for
the bottom edge, it concentrated all communication interfaces, such as:
miniUSB connector, and the slot for connecting a headset and charger.

The hole, which was concealed microphone spoken, is immediate. Moreover,
in the bottom of the phone can be found Door, which developers have
placed slot for memory cards. Snap it very well in the manner similar
caps in the digital camera.

Almost all space occupies the rear of the battery compartment lid, which
is not surprising, considering its capacity. Cover, as we have already
mentioned, is made of a metal alloy. Deleted, it is very easy - only
need to exert pressure on the latch. At the same time, its fixation is
very reliable - no scripts and backlashes and. The remaining is free of
space set aside for a digital camera lens and flash. Eye nothing
covered, but it’s very easy to clean. A stylish decorative nettings
hidden two system polyphonic speaker. Due to their close location stereo
expressed very slightly, but not the volume they occupy. However, by
that time, we will return.

In order to conveniently Communicator lying on the table, on the edges
of the rear of the provided rubber foot. Thus, the surface of Nokia E90
protected against scratches. Now is the time to unleash the Nokia E90,
it appeared to us in all beauty of this Communicator. The upper halves
mounted to the bottom with the help of two metal joints, which
immediately visible on the sides of the phone through chrome finishes.
All connectors plumes pass inside joints. Their design is such that the
two halves recorded in the three clauses with a characteristic click. In
doing so, we may disclose apparatus in the two fixed positions (about
100 and 183 degrees) or at another interim position.

Connecting halves is very well - it was a pleasure to observe a complete
lack of backlashes as in a closed or open. Thus, the important aspect is
a sense of reliability and durability. Open the machine with one hand
can be, but inconvenient, since spring hinges enough jets, and finger
and aims at persisting in the internal screen.

However, it is not so important, and the sense that occurs when Nokia
E90 in the literal and figurative sense disclosed to us. Similarity to
maximize laptop, noted that anyone who was lucky enough to chat with
device.

All space occupies the bottom half of a full QWERTY keyboard. Gratifying
that manages all major except Ctrl keys are duplicated on both sides.

Some buttons charged with multiple functions, which are provided to
activate two buttons Chr. Joystick is the same as the one on the front
panel, is only slightly smaller. In the work, he also convenient. Below
that noticeable Del key and normal Enter. It is heartening that in the
Nokia E90 virtually all necessary functions incidental without using
menu. By default, dedicated keys or keyboard combinations can perform
the following operations:

• brightness light;
• The illumination of the keyboard;
• incl. / off. IR port;
• incl. / off. Bluetooth;
• louder;
• quieter;
• Help function of the phone;
• change of profile;
• favorites;
• contacts;
• communications;
• browser;
• notes;
• calendar;
• dictaphone;
• camera;
• Two customizable features.

Switching language input is carried out by a combination of Shift + Chr.
There are standard office and combinations to work with the style of the
text (Ctrl-U, Ctrl + B, Ctrl + I), and Ctrl + A, Ctrl + Z, Ctrl + C,
Ctrl + X, Ctrl + V to highlight / copy / paste. Rollback only works on
one action, and only with highlighted text. Simply erase the symbol /
proposal will fail. If you delete the selected text, then Ctrl + Z
works. The lion’s share is a half minority of magnificent display. It is
the right of soft-keys, and left visible buttons reception / Lights Out
eye of the camera and call for the commission edge. While working with
the Communicator in a mode a finger is instinctively trying to find
soft button next to the stick, so the first time is not very convenient
to the appropriate buttons DEH E90.

Q ergonomic keyboard also need to adapt. Under optimal size keys are
tangibly tough course and is not very clear response. This will not
accept and spend one hour on the acquisition of full control of the fast
input of text. In doing so, it’s best to use to set long fingers - so
feel best hitting keys. If to put on communicator the table and “knock”
on the buttons in the manner of laptop’s method, it is unlikely that you
will someday. But reiterate, after adjusting certain issues with fast
and convenient test set, we have not risen. So now we’ll complete the
first part of our review. Next time we will have a detailed familiarity
with software and hardware features of our hero, and can assure you that
ahead you’ll have a lot of interesting.

Hardware and software features. Platform

In terms of hardware, we have almost exact copy Nokia N95/N93. This
means that the heart is a communicator system chipset Texas Instruments
2420. This decision implies many nuclear architecture. Cheep TI2420
bears the burden in the form of the kernel CPU ARM1136 (330 MHz),
digital signal processor TMS320C55xDSP (220 MHz), and graphics
accelerator 2D/3D- kernel, which is responsible for processing signals
with the digital camera. Total RAM is 128 MB, which is user accessible
from about 80 MB. In addition, Nokia E90 provides additional 256 Mb NAND
Flash memory, of which a user needs to set aside 120 MB. Let’s don’t
forget about the support microSD memory card format. For many small and
revelation will come as a surprise that, as a programmatic platform
Nokia E90 supports Symbian OS 9.2, or the Series 60 platform 3rt Edition
Feature Pack 1. Thus, the cut ends for Nokia Series 80, based on which
all previous Communicators Nokia similar form factor. I must say that
this is a logical step, given that the third edition of Series 60 offers
all possibilities for scaling system for various types of devices. Thus,
no need to spend more on development forces branches Symbian OS - better
focus on the Series 60 platform. As a result, Nokia E90 excellent job
with the launch of applications for Symbian OS 9.2 both internally and
externally screen. The difference is only in scale images by permission
internal screen. The whole beauty of this concept is that the user can
choose the mode of operation of the smartphone, based on their needs.
For example, by the message he read it on the external display, and then
unveiling Communicator, will continue to work and write a response. The
same is true of any application for Symbian OS 9.2 - Nokia E90 owner
himself decide whether to use Communicator opportunities to the full, or
use it as usual all smartphone. This is a huge step forward because
suggests a previously unthinkable functionality of the device and
unmatched flexibility.

Now it is time to talk about the display of our hero. Actually, you
already know that Nokia E90 boasts both internal and external screens.
Thus, the external matrix TFT-320 has a resolution х240 points and the
ability to display up to 16 million colors and shades. The quality of
images is high, but, in our view, sometimes lacked saturation and
brightness of paints. By the way, the brightness of the backlight
automatically regulated depending on the surrounding environment through
the sensor. At sun image fade a bit, but thanks to anti-coated remains
readable. As for the internal screen, it can be described, without
exaggeration, the best solution not only for Nokia smartphones, but also
among phones at all. And this is not without purpose. Judge for
yourselves: where else can you see a TFT-matrix, which can display up to
16 million colours and shades and has a resolution of 800 h352 point!
For comparison, let’s say that the previous model Communicators - such
as Nokia 9500/9300 - had the permission of all 640 h200. As for the
picture quality, it simply flawlessly. The image is superb design of the
parts and deep saturated colors and high brightness. By the way, the
brightness of the display Internal can be regulated through buttons on
the keyboard. At sun screen behavior simply perfect. At maximum
brightness level strain no need eyesight to read the text or image to
consider.

Viewing Angle the maximum. Finally, the screen simply designed for word
processing or web content. Actually, this is not surprising, because we
are communicator. And now let’s talk about the time of autonomous work
Nokia E90. In Communicator, a lithium-polymer battery BP-4L capacity
1500 mAh. This value (the maximum so far have similar products) is due
to high energy two displays with higher resolution, as well as
sufficiently powerful hardware platform. Let’s not forget the presence
of a large number of wireless interfaces. According to the manufacturer
apparatus capable develop up to 260 hours in standby mode and up to 5
hours of talk-time. As for reality, it is very active engagement of all
the resources of the phone barely Nokia E90 will live one day. If the
minimal use of internal screen, we can speak about two and a half days
of continuous use. In reality, leaves that need to charge the phone
every two days, which generally not bad. Maximum battery quickly be
discharged while the communication capabilities E90. This is not
surprising, given that while you are using the internal screen and
wireless interfaces. In this case it is necessary to bear in mind that
the entire Communicator will live for 7-8 hours. System dynamics
polyphonic superior quality sound. The effect is enhanced if the phone
put on the table. In this case, the space between Communicator and the
table will act as a resonator, which only enhance the sound. Volume of
speakers are more in any conditions, so that a call will fail even in
the subway. In addition, the phone is equipped with a good vibrocall -
there is a vibration even through bag.

Wireless interfaces. GPS

Like laws require the genre, Nokia E90 has all the potential to date
wireless interfaces. The list begins with the availability of infrared
port. Despite the advanced age, this interface does not look like an
anachronism, given the specificity of Nokia E90. Of course, there is
Wi-Fi. To say about the work of this module nothing because his work
beauty. Traditionally, there is a master of connectivity, which is
immediately available in the standby mode, and it is very convenient to
use. There are security protocols WEP, WPA, WPA2. Not forgotten stack
and a Bluetooth version 2.0 with support for EDR. The following
profiles: BIP, ImagePush, DUN-GW, FT-Server, HandsFree-AG (1.0),
Headset-AG, OBEX, OPP-Client, OPP-Server, Server-SIM Access. On the
paper “blue tooth” also have no claims. As for USB, the Nokia
E90-miniUSB connector applied. Protocol version - 2.0. When connecting
to a PC user can choose the mode of connection: PC Suite or USB Mass
Storage. Are the regime modem or printer. Do Nokia E90 another trump
card - the built-in GPS receiver. With respect to the apparatus of this
solution has its obvious advantages and disadvantages. Indeed, the
positive side is obvious. Big screen as the best suited for viewing maps
than at the same Nokia N95 and Nokia 6110. More pluses derived from the
very fact of the availability of GPS navigation on the Communicator. If
you do not, and will actively use this function, its existence does not
hurt, because never know when the need to know the exact location.

As for the negative side, the quality of reception is considerably lower
than that of the Nokia N95 and the Nokia 6110. GPS receiver Nokia E90
noticeably slower start their brethren. This is particularly perceptible
at cold start and with the sudden loss of satellites in the tunnel and
trying to find them again. Moreover, the use of the car as Communicator
browser hampered by the absence of a special holder. And without it, not
easy to find in the car seat for Communicator in the disjointed state.
Moreover, the time when the receiver autonomous work decreases
significantly. Standard smartphone software can only work with cards,
downloadable from the site of the company by Nokia GPRS or EDGE
connection. As it happens, we now learn. Only with the standard software
present the following programs for data processing GPS receiver.

Maps. With this application you can determine the current position of
the device on the map, finding the necessary city or country to search
various sites and attractions, and plan routes movement between
different destinations, as well as to maintain the situation as
guidelines. For the first time applications “Maps” in a new place you
need to connect to the Internet. You can do this through a Wi-Fi
connection or through GPRS/EDGE- access. After a while after launch
applications and communication with the satellites (at cold start it
takes up to 8 minutes) takes place setting current location. With his
light begins downloads from the Internet map terrain. PAY need only
Internet connection. Once loaded map stored in the internal buffer. It
should be noted that this service is not so road as it might seem at
first glance. Suffice detailed map of Minsk took nearly 2.5 Mb, so that
the loading of this volume through the GPRS connection is not ravage
your purse. But for navigation functions will have to pay. That is
paving the route on a map, you certainly can. In this mode you will
simulate the movement demonstrated way, but wire services in real time
with voice not free pointer. Paid separately acquired license to the
limited time for a specific region. Indeed, the money from the site and
the company can buy a detailed guide. But it is worth doing only if you
want to get acquaintance with the city of maximum experience. If you
want to find the nearest store, or a hotel parking lot, then through
Implemented successfully expanded the search for different categories is
not difficult, and the program will provide you with all the necessary
information on the distance to the point and route. The accuracy of
positioning an object with a quite high and while driving in a car
within the allowable 10 metres.

Benchmarks. This application is nothing more than a database stored on
the map established benchmarks. In choosing one of them happens his
immediate display on the map.

The GPS data. It shows the strength of satellite signals about the past
and the rest of the way, speed, etc. In general, the functions of GPS
navigator at a decent level. The only negative is that the user is tied
to maps provided by the company itself, Nokia. Use of third-party card
is only possible when installing other software. However, such an
approach has its obvious advantages. The user can use the GPS-navigator
in virtually any city in the world immediately after purchase. The only
requirement - access to the Internet. However, from this mobility can be
back and download maps to the phone via a laptop or PC. To do so is to
establish a free Nokia Map Loader, with the help of which will occur and
downloading maps from the Internet and install them on the smartphone.
Clarify that in some detail in the maps depicting only megacities.
Otherwise, we have the only major roads and highways between towns of
the country.

Camera

It’s no secret that there is a widespread view that the vehicles
intended for the corporate segment, to anything built digital cameras.
However, the customers themselves, in the person of the major companies
oppose the presence of cameras staff phones, with which they could
hypothetically make the important organizations from the corporate
secrets. Despite the clear positioning in the business segment, Nokia
E90 equipped with a decent digital module. We have provided 3.2 -
Large-CMOS matrix. Camera lens possesses Auto. Is LED outbreak. Once
activated, the camera moves outward display in landscape mode and acts
as a viewfinder. To Shutter has its own button on the right brink
apparatus. Features are similar to the camera so for the Nokia N93/N93i.
Also identical settings.

Here they are:
.. Shooting modes: automatic, customized, large plan, portrait,
landscape, sports, night, night portrait.
.. The regime outbreak: automatic, mandatory inclusion on / off, removing
red eye.
.. Time: 2, 10 or 20 seconds.
.. Burst: turned off, turned on, survey after 10 or 30 seconds after 1,
5, 10 or 15 minutes.
.. Exposure correction: from -2.0 to +2.0 to 0.5 EV step.
.. White balance: auto, sunny, cloudy, incandescent lamp, the lamp
fluorescence.
.. Color effects: normal, sepia, black and white, bright, negative.
.. Photosensitivity (ISO): high, medium, low, Robot.
.. Adjust the contrast.
.. Adjust the sharpness: high, normal, low.

In addition, the developer gives us the opportunity to choose one of
four permits images: 2048×1536, 1600×1200, 1024×768, 640×480 pixels. In
addition, there are still quite a peculiar feature - an improved digital
zoom. The bottom line is that when you turn on the value of the digital
zoom to 20 x. Of course, the machine is able to withdraw the video. This
implies maximum quality MPEG4 movie with a resolution of 640 х480 and
frequency of 30 frames per second. Of the options available only choice
night or automatic mode, as well as the inclusion of the image
stabilizer. To activate it while recording the shake of camera condenses
to minimum. The most interesting is this option actually work, so that
will not prevent its inclusion. You can also customize the white balance
and different color effects.

The quality of images is at a similar level with Nokia N93, Nokia E90
adds that another big plus, because almost none Communicator not like
the E90 on this parameter.

Interface. Menu

So, we already know that Nokia E90 is based on Symbian 9.2. That means
at our disposal the full potential and rich capabilities of the OS. It
is also important that the Communicator receives the same functionality
as in a closed or open.

And do not forget that a large internal screen specifics imposes some
changes in the presentation of standard applications. For example, in
the same gallery screen is divided into two parts. On the left we see
the usual images in a list, while the right of the screen displays
larger photo images peculiar preview window. Same situation, and in
other applications. Thus improving the perception of information - it is
becoming more accessible. We are not talking about the convenience of
working with the text and web pages - Nokia E90 here at all outside
competition. Stop at the standard capabilities of the system, we will
not, but look at what is hidden under the menu choices. By the way, open
style is accessible only 2 display menu: a list and table.

Pay attention to the screens - are very well illustrated advantage of a
large screen and a separate window, in many paragraphs menu.

Contacts
It is not difficult to guess what the item is hidden under a functional
address book Communicator.

Calendar
Calendar put in a separate menu item. Note that the right to display the
chosen day full list of cases.

Journal
All information about the calls and wireless connections is hiding here.

Hours
Normal hours of Nokia smartphones with enough functional alarm clock and
the world of time.

Messages
All operations that you want to perform on the various types of messages
are available here. Again, the benefits of your screen when viewing the
list of messages are obvious.

Funds
By this point in hiding the menu shown on the screenshot applications,
as well as setting the phone, where we can customize the voice telephone
management, profiles, to determine the speed dial keys, or have access
to the built the file system manager or access your phone, which is very
convenient grouped under several items that allows you to quickly find
the necessary option. It should be noted the possibility voice phone.
The fact is that in the Nokia E90 applied in the conversion vote. That
is, we can preview text messaging or e-mail. In the settings you can
choose the language in which the message will be read out and vote. At
the testing sample was loaded only English language module, which is
effectively read out the message, written in translit. If desired,
required language module can be downloaded separately, which is a huge
plus system.

Relationship
Options communication modules made in a separate menu item. Here, we can
customize Bluetooth, infrared, Wi-Fi, USB, as well as the Nokia E90 use
as Internet phone using a separate service.

Office
Here all the necessary business tools to humans. In addition to the
standard, I would like to mention utility Nokia Search, which allows a
local search all folders and phone memory cards. Opportunities office
suite Quickoffice evident here in full. In Nokia E90, of course, it is
possible to edit documents. Mobile version Adobe Reader also will be
very helpful. Another innovation is a utility Active Notes (active
notes). Unlike conventional text notes, there is the ability to add
various multimedia objects, such as: graphics files, records, etc. by
dictophone. But this is not the most interesting. For specific
subscriber of the address book you can create a link to an article. This
means that during the call, the contents of notes will be displayed on
the screen - agree, it is very convenient.

Media
This menu concentrated all multimedia applications phone. It is hence
allows access to the camera, radio, voice recorder, as well as musical
and video record-player, Flash player and Gallery.

Internet
The possibilities are absolutely standard browser for phones E-series.
It is noteworthy only convenient viewing pages, for which requires
little or no horizontal scrolling.

GPS
Here is the navigation software.

Conclusion

That’s come to an end next review, and the time had come to bid farewell
to our guest and the stock-taking of acquaintances. I think we can say
without exaggeration that Nokia was able to once again commit a small
revolution, the name of which - Nokia E90. Indeed, to be really quite
accurate, the revolution started a very long time ago, in 1996. But
today we can only talk about the results. The thing that won the battle
for Nokia Communicator. It is now the time has come to such a device
form factor. Over the years, the development of information technology
and communications fields prepared for the emergence of users of the
device, and Nokia E90 finally something for their fans. At the same
time, we will not deny that this kind of communicator is still a niche
product. Despite the abundance of functions and the many positive sides,
many are not ready to accept large size, weight and, of course, very
expensive price. At the forums, many people have the means to buy the
phone of this price range, made its choice in the Nokia 8600 Luna,
preferring style functionality. However, this is totally different set
of the market, and in this segment of the keyboard Nokia Communicators
have no competitors. Resistance could have very well, as represented by
Nokia outdated models Nokia 9300/Nokia 9500. But these communicators
based on the past bygone platform Series 80. Also, let us not forget the
unique concept of Nokia E90, which is that when closed, we get Symbian
smartphone, and in the open - Symbian-communicator with all the charm of
the platform Series 60 third edition, a huge screen and a
QWERTY-keyboard . And while we have full compatibility with the Symbian
9.2 software in a closed or open mode. In short, once again want to say:
“Bravo, Nokia!”
