Today Nokia officially announced two new additions to its E series business-focused devices, the E66 slider and the E71 bar-phone with full QWERTY keyboard. They share a large number of features. Both have quad-band GSM/EDGE radios and several 3G profiles, with each coming in a 3.6Mbps WCDMA/HSDPA 850/1900 North American variant. Bluetooth 2.0+EDR with stereo support and Wi-Fi are included. They run the Nokia S60 operating system with Feature Pack 1. A 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and flash is standard on both phones, as is GPS, 2.5mm headset jacks and microSD support for cards up to 8GB. Both are loaded with Nokia’s business software, such as a VPN client and support for Exchange. Both phones also share the E series styling first seen on the E51. They will be available in the third quarter.

• E66: This slider phone is the successor to the E65. Its stand out feature is that it has an accelerometer built in, and will auto-rotate the screen when it is turned sideways.
• E71: This phone is the progeny of the E61/62. It is smaller than the E61/62, but still has a full QWERTY keyboard for typing messages.

I don’t know if this cuts cake or not, but Toshiba’s Portege R500-12Q, rebranded for US as the R500-S5007V, still remains the first laptop to have 128GB of SSD sweetness, while being thin and light at the same time. There is no word on when it will become available, but at $3000, I would give the MacBook Air a pass any day over this.

Here is what you will get if you pony up $2,999:

• Intel Core2Duo Processor U7700 1.33GHz, 2MB L2, 533MHz FSB with 64 bit
• 2GB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM
• 128GB Serial ATA Solid State Drive
• 12.1-inch diagonal widescreen high-brightness display with 1280 x 800 WXGA resolution
• Transreflective backlit LED
• Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator 950
• 7mm, 8x SuperMulti-DVD (+/-R Single Layer) drive supporting 9 formats
• Genuine Windows Vista Business (32-bit version) with downgrade media for Genuine Windows XP Professional
• Intel Wireless Wi-Fi Link 4965AGN, Intel PRO/1000 - 10/100/1000 Ethernet, and Bluetooth 2.0 +EDR
• 3-Year Standard Limited Warranty

Fujitsu hasn’t released yet the T5010 tablet PC but apparently it has already been spotted in a Virginia Tech University bookstore. So when should we expect a decent official release?

The Fujitsu T5010 tablet PC has a 13.3-inch LED backlit WUXGA display, 2GB of RAM, an undisclosed so far 45nm Core 2 Duo processor and an 120GB hard drive. If you need more than that to decide if this tablet is worth the $1,999 then the T5010 also a built-in DVD burner, a built-in webcam and a fingerprint reader.

Not that bad for a tablet, not that bad at all. The price is a little steep but it should be worth all that money.
