Summary: Spectacular Phone
Comment: A smartphone that is not huge like the iPhone and Blackberries, e.g. it has Wi-Fi, GPS, Maps, Browser, RealPlayer, E-Mail, Office, Camera/Video, etc. but it's about the size of a RAZR (slightly taller but thinner). Same features as E71 but smaller. Solid construction, quality feel.

I have not experienced either problem referenced by the other reviewer. Battery life is excellent, and the unlocking issue is not present. Perhaps confirm that you're getting the extended battery.

Summary: Impressing but faulty
Comment: I just got this phone last week, and it has some nice features. The one I liked mostly is that you can put specific phone numbers on a black list and have the phone send a busy signal when they call you. One other thing is the calendar and to do list. Very practical. Also you can have an alarm set to wake you up only on weekdays. Cool!!
Also, what I liked about this phone is that it's a sturdy phone, it feels good in your hand. It's beautiful, but it will get smedged easily with fingerprints. However, battery life is really bad, not what I'm used of with Nokia. Also, the slide mechanism has a major problem. When you slide open the phone, it just doesn't react by unlocking the phone. You have to unlock it manually. It seems this is some kind of magnetic failure of the phone. More users have reported this same problem. You can see these on the Nokia Discussions website. I took the phone back to the store and exchanged it for the N95. But still I like the E66 best because it has some features the N95 does not have. E.g. when in sleep mode you press the selection key you see the time. And the phone is so slim it slips comfortably in your jeans pocket. Try that with the bulky N95...
I hope Nokia fixes this slide problem.
