Well if your dreams of a new set have been dashed by the Nokia XpressMusic 5800's issues but you still want to shop Nokia, here's a deal for you. Amazon's Gold Box sale today features the lovely -- and arguably Nokia's sassiest QWERTY smartphone -- Nokia E71 in gray for $289 shipped. We peeked at Nokia's shop and they have it priced at $349, and Expansys is at $389, so we're fairly impressed at the price here, though it will only be about at this price today. Heck, we may stock up and make it an early Nokia Christmas this year, for ourselves. The read link will send you off to Amazon's Gold Box page, so if you're reading this article late, the set will be gone.

sweet, just bought it
it can replace my blackjack II, which is my backup / "beater phone" to my touch pro
thanks for the heads up
You wouldn't believe it, but the regional wireless company (leverages at&t's network outside of the region) Cincinnati Bell is currently running a promotion where all of their phones are free with any service plan on $59.99/month or higher. This includes the Nokia e71, and many blackberries. Oh and no contracts. http://cincinnatibell.com/consumer/wireless/phones_and_devices/?id=nokia_e71
isn't the E63 better and cheaper than this?
Depends on what you consider better, the e63 is cheaper but is also lacks GPS, 3G HSDPA, 3 mp camera, and has a crappier plastic build. Its nice that the e63 has a 3.5 mm headphone jack, but thats about its only advantage.
