The E61 does indeed run Symbian (I use a Sumbian phone, myself). Here's a review: http://my-symbian.com/s60v3/review_e61.php FWIW, I'm now using a Sony P910i, and am looking forward to my next Symbian phone, a P990i (see http://www.symbian.com/phones/se_p990.html). The P990 is also Wi-Fi enabled. Of note is that the P990 comes with a choice of four keyboard layouts: QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY and Russian. Now why can't I get a DVORAK keyboard for it???? :-) || As an aside (or perhaps closer to being on topic), I've used FTP from the phone to transfer files to and from my OS/2 box. While the P910 does not have Wi-Fi, and I've found T-Mo's data service here in New York to be really lousy (worse in Virginia!!), the FTP and overall web performance - including mail, obviously - has been less than stunning. However, for moving a few files between devices, a good Symbian FTP app gets the job done wirelessly (but without encryption).

Nokia seem to have avoided windoze for a long time, if this device had been running it, I'd suspect it wasn't their product, rather a "re-badge" of someone else. Cheers/2 Ed.
