I’ve used a lot of mobile email in the past years. Blackberries, Win Mo devices, Nokias and iPhones. And I love QWERTY phones, wouldn’t have it any other way. Sick and tired of touch phones, not my style probably. I totally love my E71, my perfect phone.

My preference for devices is this: Nokia > Blackberry > Win Mo >iPhone. I say again: *My* preference – I won’t start a war on this.

I typically use built in apps because usually they are better than any downloaded app for the simple reason that they are built by and for that particular device. I tried various apps (even Emoze that you mentioned), but they didn’t appeal to me.

True, it matters which email provider you use daily. I don’t have the Gmail app installed, I don’t have Yahoo Go installed. I just have the trial Nokia Email client configured with all my accounts, business and personal. It helps keeping things in one place. If Nokia decides to get some cash from their email client, they should consider HTML emails and then I will be more than happy to acquire it.

I know you will say that Nokia Email is just another email app, not built in, but I pretty much consider it to be built in because hey… Nokia Email app on a Nokia phone

Jeb I use LCG Profimail for Email and also have Nokia Messaging and Gmail app on my E71 for test purposes. I find all apps go they required function and work very well, but for the sheer configurability LCG Profimail wins, but its not FREE.

The built-in email on the E71 and most Nokia phones is disappointing, but installing the new Nokia Messaging will change that, even with some of its limitations. Its free to use at the moment, still no news when Nokia or if Nokia will start charging for it.

i use the mail app on the iPhone but i’m finding that most people are just downloading and using the gmail client. It seems pretty powerful

I’m using Nokia Email on my N82. The backend is a Google Apps hosted email setup and I like to archive rather than delete, so if I am away from my computer for any length of time, I may fire up the Gmail app to archive some older mail.

Last I heard, the E71x was going to be $199, which is far too much. It needs to be 150 at most, but $99 would be a really nice deal.
