Nokia Email Application (beta) - Works Great But No N82 Love?


So what's going on here? Nokia recently released a new email application called Nokia Email which is supposed to rival competitors such as Blackberry. Using a different technology than the built-in email client, Nokia Email really is a great tool - when it works.

So far it has been working just fine on my Nokia N82, email arrives extremely fast - sometimes faster than my Gmail browser window in Firefox. Nokia Email works with just about any email server that allows IMAP or POP access, not including corporate email and hotmail.

There is one thing that is making me ticked off however. Where is the Nokia Email version for the N82?

When I go to the email.nokia.com website to download the application, here is the screen I see (minus the question mark)...



I wonder what's going on here? Why no N82 love? I'm using the N95 version and it seems to be working fine, but I'm sure it can be working even better with a N82 version. Maybe consume less RAM and battery. My guess is maybe, for some reason, Nokia just doesn't have a N82 in the building to test this new application on. Who knows?

Granted Nokia Email is still in beta so we can't complain THAT much since it's not a final release. At least Nokia allows us to test out their applications before they are final.

I wrote up a full review of the latest Nokia Email beta release over at Symbian-Addict. Click here to read it.

Go to email.nokia.com to try it yourself.

Have you already tried this new application? What are your thoughts compared to other email solutions on your Nokia N82.
