The CES is finally over and we can say there were many interesting gadgets, and all thus phone  which weren’t paid too much attention probably would be introduced in Barcelona next month. Though the Nokia E6-00 was not shown off enough detailed, but one thing we can say authentically – the handset will make a good competition to the iPhone and Google’s Android OS.

A little information is known yet, and at the first I have to said the phone runs Symbian^3 which is the last version of the OS. The screen size is not unveiled yet, but it will have a resolution of 640×480 pixels and it would be a VGA touchscreen. That’s the first Nokia phone with such resolution.

Here we have an 8MP camera, which is the same device we can find in the E7, so it would have a dual LED flash. The phone also runs the latest version of Nokia’s web browser and features ARM processor, Bluetooth, HSDPA and WiFi connectivity.

According to some rumors the Nokia E6-00 will come in a portrait QWERTY form factor, but I guess this information is related with the fact it is the next smartphone from E-series, so like the E72 and E71 this one could be packed with the same kind of keyboard.

We can’t say anything else, and even there is no information how much the Nokia E6-00 will cost, or whether it’ll sport such features to make a real competition, or this is just a desire of Nokia fans who think the Finnish company has not laid down arms yet. All these questions will be answered in a few short weeks.

According to the official press release, Microsoft and Nokia have released a corporate client Communicator Mobile for Nokia.

Communicator Mobile application will show who of the user’s colleagues is online and will give the smartphone owner an opportunity to communicate with multiple methods of communication. Thus, a user can send SMS, e-mails, instant messages and make phone calls from one client.

Owners of Nokia E Series, E72 and E52 smartphones, will get the first opportunity to set the client. The Communicator may be downloaded on Ovi Store. This application is free for the users of Office Communications Server 2007.

This was the first decision made within the frameworks of partnership between Microsoft and Nokia. The announcement about the creation of an alliance to develop new applications was made by companies in August 2009.

At that time it was reported that the companies plan to create mobile versions of Microsoft Office applications. The development of business applications and products for joint work for smartphones based on Symbian OS was also announced.

Previously, Microsoft applications were available only for the  smartphones based on WinMo OS. However, due to  the lower popularity of the mobile platform Microsoft had to promote its solutions on other operating systems.

Thus, Microsoft Office Communicator Mobile package can be installed on a number of Nokia smartphones running Symbian S40 and S60 operating systems, as well as for one of the Motorola devices- Motorola Razr.

Traditionally, business-smart phones of Nokia, belonging to the E-series, have QuickOffice, which allows you to work with office documents. Owners of these devices can freely upgrade it to the sixth version of QuickOffice.

That version of QuickOffice, which is included in the standard software of E51, E52, E55, E63, E71, E72, E75 and E90 smartphone cannot edit Office 2007 software package documents. Quickoffice 6 has this option, along with support for ZIP-archives, the opportunity to work with password-protected files, diagrams, and a number of other improvements.
Quickoffice 6 upgrade for the owners of the abovementioned smartphones is absolutely free. Use the Quickmanager application in order to update the software. At the moment, Quickoffice 6 is available only in English, but in the near future it will have localized versions.
