Nokia E55 With New Fashionable QWERTY KeyBoard

We sniffed out Nokia’s new E55 not-a-QWERTY QWERTY candybar phone, which uses a SureType-esque predictive text mechanism with two letters per key, and looks pretty good doing it. Nokia’s calling this the “world’s thinnest smartphone,” quite the feat if it’s true, and it might just give Nokia’s ultrapopular E71 a run for its money in the “fashionably smart” category. We played with the phone for a brief moment, and though it’s running an alpha software build, we didn’t have much trouble typing out a quick message. Unfortunately, while the keys are naturally larger, they aren’t very “clicky” or distinct — not horrible, but certainly not best-in-class.
