RIM has had a strong hold of the business market for some time now. In the recent years a surge has been made to push BlackBerry into the consumers way of life. Most would agree that email on the BlackBerry platform remains to be the standard by which all other platforms live up to.

Love it or hate it a Symbian^1 phone at this price point will easily become an instant hit. At $150 unlocked you are not going to find a much better phone. What do you think, will this be a success for Nokia?

It has a hint of old school Blackberry look and feel to it with a dabble of salt and pepper but I wouldn&#8217;t call it an all new look and feel.
