Ah yes, the Nokia e62.

Looks like I know what my phone upgrade will be in March ‘07 when Cingular will supposedly “let” me upgrade. I have the Nokia 8862 (with the fold-out qwerty keyboard, which many people are surprised to see when I use it) and I’m due for an upgrade. I’m spoiled with my 8700 BlackBerry (on the T-Mobile network) which is great, but still does not fully satisfy my all-in-one device needs. mp3 playback? video playback? Guess the Blackberry isn’t modern enough, yet. I’ll demo the Nokia e62 and see if it’s worthy. At the very least, it’s a Nokia, which I’ve always had since day one of owning a cell phone. I love their UI and navigation, very simple and well thought out.

The question remains: will I seriously carry two PDAs (Blackberry AND the e62)? Ugh, hopefully not. If I can’t get cell phone service on my Blackberry with my personal number (the Blackberry is paid for by the day job), I’ll need to continue using two phones. We’ll see.
