Another Nokia Forray

I've got a new Nokia device to talk about some. This one didn't come from Nokia Blogger Relations, but I'll blame them anyways for getting my appitite wet for something even better ;)

I now have the Nokia N75. The N75 was the first 3G enabled Nokia phone to hit the US. It is about as speced out as you can get, except for wi-fi. But unlike my Treo, it does not have a QWERTY keyboard. It will be an adjustment towards getting used to a number pad, but I can tell you that T9 will have to learn quickly else this phone goes to the side, heheheh.

A few apps that are going on here:
- Jaiku Mobile
- S60 Bible Reader (2GB MicroSD card with that)
- Mail for Exchange (for connecting to MS Exchange)

There are a few more apps that I am sure that I'll want to get, but I like to keep things light.

One of the other reasons for going with this is that I want to be a bit more applicable to the 70+million people who this year have chosen a Nokia Symbian device, but want to learn how it can be used for mobile ministry. There's a lot, and just watch us pour it on this coming year towards what we can do.

Happy holidays all.
