    I don’t think the E71 is a chick phone. Well ok, maybe it is. But either way, I’m a guy and I like my sleek black E71x. And for $100 when it came in stores for a first day sale, not too bad.

    FYI, Sam in Burn Notice was using an E71 for a few episodes and seems to have ‘upgraded’ to one of the newer E-Series in the latest episode.

    Red? There’s a red E71? I’m with naypalm, green would be excellent. Mine’s grey (NAM E71-2).

    I’m a dude and I like the E71. But I’d probably have to admit; it’s a chick phone… A phone I wish my “chick” would have gotten like I recommended instead of that Blackberry Curve she has.

    Not at all, its more like a Matrix type looking phone but Ms. NMT also diggs mine big time but her heart is set on an XM 5800 I have to buy her soon for her bday. Perhaps Nokia will start doing these on Pink for the ladies, hmm.

    I don’t think it is necessarily a chick phone, but my wife certainly likes its stylish look.

    I’ve seen Sam Axe using that E-71 on a couple of episodes of Burn Notice; needless to say I was pretty pleased. I absolutely love my E-71, having had it since Feb 2009.

    Having said that, I will be doing the upgrade to the E-72 when it shows up in the NAM marketplace later this year (more memory and a 3.5mm jack..yes!)
