It's no secret: Nokia is after Blackberry's thunder in the enterprise with their latest E series, and especially via the E61 model. Hi-Mobile sent us in an E61 unit for the purposes of this review. Dig in for information, a video and lots of screenshots from the latest 'S60 3rd Edition' Symbian v9.1 OS.

1. No, the apps don't have to be signed to be installed (it mighy nag with an alert window, but it then goes through). Only 2-3 apps of the ones I tried had a bit of a trouble installing (SSH/Putty was one of them), but after temporarily disabling the certificate stuff, they go through too.
2. Sure! AvantGo used to have a port on an older S60 version, not sure if they are going to port their app to the latest version though. They aren't doing very good lately, so I guess a new app would be welcome by the S60 consumers.
