My Nokia 6682 Has Arrived
Earlier this week I came across an interesting blog comment from Yvonne at Matchstick.ca offering a free Rogers compatible Nokia 6682 to bloggers and Mobloggers who qualified. I thought it was an interesting proposal and with nothing more than a 15 minute phone call I had a brand new Nokia 6682 in the mail. It arrived within 24 hours and took no time to setup.
It’s a pretty neat little “smart phone”. Thanks to the Symbian OS it is ultra customizable with a good selection of applications. It syncs with Outlook and a handful of other contact managers and calendars. I’ll definately be syncing my work calendar with the phone.
The only thing that was a bit of a let down was the face that I can only sync it on my Mac via Bluetooth. Not a big deal, but there is no reason the USB cable it came with shouldn’t work on a Mac.
More chatter to come once I have had a chance to play with it a little more in regular day-to-day usage.
UPDATE - Syncing my work calendar and to-do list was a breeze. So far this phone has all the things I loved about the Blackberry but none of the annoyances.
Congratulations. I hope you two are very happy together
Hi!.
I’m thinking about dropping TracFone and going with T-Mobile. I’m
looking at a Nokia 6682 for my Grandpa. My only problem is that my
Grandpa is a little hard of hearing and can’t hear some of the ring
tones that are on some cell phones. He had a Nokia 5180ip and couldn’t
hear it half the time.
I got him a Nokia 1100, it was a little better but not much. I then
got him a Nokia 2600 and there was one ringtone on it that was pretty
good for him and he could hear it pretty well. Forget the vibrate
function. They all suck equally in all cell phones.
Does anybody know if the Nokia 6101 is as loud as the Nokia 2600? Or
can the ring tone be put through the speakerphone on the Nokia 6101 to
be really loud like the Nextel junk?
I need something really loud for him. The 6101 has all the bells and
whistles he wants. He’s not really old, just can’t hear crap.
He’s pretty well set on the 6101
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
