PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless PureMobile sent us in for a review one of Nokia's newest and most powerful handsets: the E90. The E90 is a Communicator-class device and very popular among businessmen, but also among system administrators too (one of our friends, sysadmin at Google, is using Nokia's qwerty/wifi devices specifically for SSH access). Read on for our review of the impressive E90.

I guess Ballmer was wrong.

I remember when Ballmer commented that "That is the most expensive phone in the world!" regarding the iPhone. See the clip here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5oGaZIKYvo&eurl= Honestly, the E90 does seem like a very nice phone, but I don't see anything that revolutionary, anything to justify $1,084 (unlocked finally!). Although, I don't even have an iPhone, so I'm probably a bit more cautious than most technophiles. Maybe someone can try and convince me.

Being unlocked is a feature btw. I would never, as long as I live, get a locked phone. ;)

I would get a locked phone well before I paid over a $1000 for a phone. What I will pay for is small(but not too small) WiFi device for IM, mail, web, along with some PDAish media functionality, but I don't really want a phone to do that. The Nokia N800 looks interesting, but isn't quite there yet, and while the iPhone looks nice I want the iPhone without the phone, and maybe a slightly larger screen.
