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.

The E70 is not quad-band, so if you travel a lot, it's not a great solution. More over, the E70 runs an older version of the OS, and it's not supported via firmware upgrade anymore (it only had 2 firmware upgrades, its life was short). Changing from landscape to portrait was taking up to 3 seconds, while it's instantaneous between the two screens on the E90.

I have the Nokia e70. While I love the phone, I often get problems with the RAM. I hit the "Memory Full" message all the time for a lot of sites. Does the e90 have better RAM memory?

Yes, it is has 128 MBs of RAM instead of 64. I have heard about the "memory full" problem on the E70 btw. It was fixed on future upgrades for most of the other 3.0 phones, but the E70 only had few firmware upgrades.
