			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><img class="alignright" title="nokia_e72_front" src="http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/nokia_e72_front.png" alt="nokia e72 front [Review] Nokia E72" width="177" height="290" /><strong> </strong></h2>
<h2><strong>Basic Features</strong></h2>
<p>Weighing 22gms lesser than the Nokia N97 Mini, the Enterprise series, Nokia E72 (128gms) is light, yet loaded with enviable features. 4.4&#8243; tall by 2.34&#8243; wide by 0.39&#8243; thick, it is definitely a comfortable device to hold on. With steel plate and chromed edges, Nokia did improve on the design to make the phone a solid and a gorgeous looking device.</p>
<p>A screen size of 2.3&#8243; with 320 x 240 display size (QVGA) and 16M colors, it comes with a front-facing VGA camera and a light sensor at the top right corner. Bright chrome runs around screen and the keyboard and carries over to the rear battery cover giving it an exquisite, neat and graceful look.</p>
<p>The E72 has a full QWERTY keyboard occupying the same space to that of the screen, with special and shortcut keys which include calendar, e-mail and contacts filling in the centre. It also includes the “Navi Keys”, also called as the optical track pads lying between the special and shortcut keys.</p>
<p><span id="more-194"></span></p>
<p>Up top, you’ll find the power button and standard 3.5mm stereo jack for headphones. The side keys include the volume up and down keys, along with a voice key for access to applications and contacts. The other side (left-hand side) has a closed microUSB port (which can be used for charging also) and a microSD slot. Lastly, the bottom includes a charging port.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft" title="nokia_e72_back" src="http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/nokia_e72_back.png" alt="nokia e72 back [Review] Nokia E72" width="166" height="287" />A standard 5MP (2592px by 1944px) camera with single LED flash, 10x digital zoom and autofocus, makes the phone perfect for multimedia photography. It also includes VGA recording, the quality being similar to that of N97, allows you to record moving objects at a rate of 15 frames/sec with a max dimension of 640×480 pixels while it auto adjusts the video settings to get maximum quality output.</p>
<p>
<h2><strong>Technical Features</strong></h2>
<p>Running on the S60 3rd Edition OS and a 600Mhz processor, navigating through the menus is heedless. Has a 250MB user memory and is expandable up to 16GB, which is a lot of space! It also includes 3G (HSDPA, 10.2 Mbps; HSUPA 2 Mbps), Bluetooth 2.0, Wi-Fi, A-GPS, FM tuner, Speaker, Push-to-talk, Voice-command capability and a v2.0 MicroUSB port.</p>
<p>Survives for about 20.5 days on standby and is capable of 12.5 hours of talk time. Supports WAP 2.0/xHTML, HTML browser, Java, Document editor (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF) and File Manager.</p>
<p><h2><strong>Colours and covers</strong></h2>
<p>Zodium black, Metal grey and Topaz brown</p>
<p>
<h3>Pros:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Amaz-freak-ingly designed!</li>
<li>Great camera</li>
<li>Excellent call quality</li>
<li>Faster browser</li>
</ul>
<p><h3>Cons:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Same old user-interface (Icons look pixelated)</li>
<li>Camera autofocus is a bit unusual</li>
<li>Longer menu levels</li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.univercell.in/" target="_blank">UniverCell</a> Online Price: <strong>Rs 18,221 /-<br />
</strong><span style="font-weight: normal;">(Buy it at UniverCell and get Reebok sunglasses worth Rs 4999/- FREE!)</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify">Yes, I am alive. It’s been a long time since I blogged last. I know. Forget that, it’s been ages since I logged in to my dashboard. No wonder, there are hundreds of comments awaiting for my approval <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  #lazy</p>
<p align="justify">(Checking my last blog post) 23rd April, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">a month!??</span> 2 months!? (Thanks @9_6 for pointing out that mistake <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  ) God! That’s really a long time. But, what’s keeping me away from blogging? Work, Twitter and again work!</p>
<p align="justify">Earlier, I had mentioned something about <a href="http://www.joelifernandes.com/lifes-hectic-but-its-more-excting/">business firm</a> and all. Well, this is one of the main reason that’s keeping me away. Hell loads of things to do and a BIG deal right on it’s way <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  Hope it’s a DEAL! <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" /> </p>
<p align="justify">Secondly, I am very active on <a href="http://twitter.com/joelfernandes">Twitter</a> now a days <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  Had stopped twitting a while but now I am addicted again <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  It’s fun. You can follow me <a href="http://twitter.com/joelfernandes">here</a> and if you (still) don’t have a #Twitter account the better <a href="http://twitter.com/">go get one</a>. I’m sure you’ll love it <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  @Twitter, a micro-blogging service, has kind of replaced (macro) blogging for me but I’ll never leave blogging. Will keep updating this space too <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  #awesomeness</p>
<p align="justify"><span id="more-21"></span></p>
<p align="justify">And work again? Didn&#8217;t you just say that you have some “business work” and stuff? LOL, this is different. Dad’s constructing a new house and since dad is out of station for some days, I’ve gotta look at the place. Have to keep a track of the number of people coming to work, what work they do and what not. *sigh* Doing this all alone is a real pain in the ass. #Shucks! <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" /> </p>
<p align="justify">College will be re-opening on <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">15th of July</span> July 8th :-/ God knows why they moved it up. Idiots! #fail And holidays are been so bugging <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  You know why…But business work is keeping me a lil excited every time I recall about the DEAL! <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" />  Will keep you updated about this when the right time comes. So, keep sticking around <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' title="Joel, you alive? Yes!!!" /> </p>

<div id="attachment_8" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 484px"><img class="size-full wp-image-8" title="faces" src="http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/faces.jpg" alt="hectic and exciting" width="474" height="314" /><p class="wp-caption-text">hectic and exciting</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On one hand, days are being so hectic, frustrating and bugging and on the other  hand they are just exciting, enthusiastic, joyous and amazing!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Hectic, Frustrating and Bugging coz of my college, where I’m supposed to  submit records, assignments and  all those shit you know and upon that it is my  previous webhost! I had no luck at all to get any sort of back-up of the contents  of my blogs which included <a href="http://www.technobitez.com/">TechnoBitez</a> as well :( That was the most  heart-breaking moment I ever had <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' title="Lifes Hectic But Its More Exciting!!!" />  I had to set up everything again from  the beginning which was pathetic…Well, from now on I need to be very careful  about my back-ups and I think I don’t have to worry about any server crashes coz  I am now shifted to <a href="http://www.surpasshosting.com/">Surpass Hosting</a> FOREVER! <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' title="Lifes Hectic But Its More Exciting!!!" /> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now you must be wondering, with all these things happening why the hell did I  mention that my days are Exciting, Enthusiastic, Joyous and Amazing?! Hehehe don’t worry,  I haven’t gone mad coz of the shit happening around <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' title="Lifes Hectic But Its More Exciting!!!" />  The reason is something  else and I’m very damn excited about this. Hmm I’m actually not supposed to  disclose this thing yet but one possible clue I could give you is that it’s a  business firm which is all set to explode to the world <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' title="Lifes Hectic But Its More Exciting!!!" />  And it’s doing great  till date and no wonder that makes me feel so excited about it <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' title="Lifes Hectic But Its More Exciting!!!" />  All I can say  is that the word will sooner or later be out. So keep sticking around… <img src='http://www.joelifernandes.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' title="Lifes Hectic But Its More Exciting!!!" /> </p>
