Nokia E71 With GPS Coming May 8?

Nokia E71 With GPS

Rumor has it that the Nokia E71 will finally be launched this Thursday, May 8.  The mobile phone, with GPS reception and a handy database of Nokia maps, has already been spotted in several Dutch online stores.  Expected specs include GPS, of course, HSDPA, UMTS, Wi-Fi, a 3 megapixel camera, as well as mp3 playback and an integrated stereo FM radio.  We’ll anxiously wait and see, and when this baby goes public, we’ll let know.

Sprint Offers Best Cell Phone Package Around: $99/Month For Unlimited Everything And GPS Navigation

Sprint NextelIf you’re more interested in carrying around a cell phone with GPS functionality than purchasing an actual GPS navigation system, Sprint Nextel’s new offering may interest you.  Designed in desperation, as Sprint has been rapidly losing customers and thus money in the past couple of quarters, the communications provider will offer a comprehensive and unlimited calling package for only $89.99 per month.  That’s $10 below its nearest competitor and by unlimited, we mean unlimited.  Unlimited minutes, unlimited text-messaging and unlimited walkie-talkie usage.   For an extra $10 a month, Sprint will throw in every possible app you could possibly want on a cell phone including GPS navigation, internet access, mobile TV, and email to mention a few.  You could plan to pay about $140 a month for a similar package at any other provider.
