Summary: Almost great
Comment: I've had this phone for about a month now. Previously I had an E51 which is smaller than the E75 but the phones are similar. The E75 has a bit more power under the hood from what I see and the larger screen is a plus. I didn't want a touchscreen for a number of reasons, and this is a perfect fit for useability.
Overall, it performs well. Reception is good, visibility of the screen is good in all kinds of light, the buttons are easy to use, the keyboard is very handy (I have large hands and typical smartphone keyboards like the E61 are impossibly small), the camera is decent and the flash comes in handy at work (I sometimes need to take photos of parts in dark areas). The speakerphone is loud enough for me to use on most construction sites. The Wi-Fi functions well. The slide-out design of the keyboard make it more comfortable to use the internet since the screen orientation is better and the keys don't get in the way of what's on screen.
The only real downer with this phone (and it's a big one so far) is how it reacts when it connects to the bluetooth hands-free in my truck which is built into the head unit. Every time I get in the truck and the phone pairs up it enters music mode and the music library screen opens. To use the phone, I have to close the music library first. This also seems to affect the reliability of the bluetooth connection. A few times after answering calls with the music library open and hanging up, the bluetooth system (also from Nokia) freezes and the head unit thinks the call is still active. This never happened with my E51 nor does it happen when I shut the music library before using the phone. The only way to unfreeze it is to shut bluetooth off and switch it back on a let the phone pair up again. Having to play with the phone this much while driving negates the safety aspects of using a hands free system in the first place. I called Nokia assistance about the music library starting automatically and was told that this is a built-in function that can't be turned off. I find that unacceptable in a phone designed for business use. The only other issue I'm having is with dirt getting under the screen protector. It's not a well sealed screen and tons of dust and even sand get in easily. Depending on where you use the phone, it might be a deal breaker.
I'm happy with the phone and would recommend it to friends, but Nokia really needs to do something about the bluetooth starting the music library and they need to make sure that the screen is better protected.

Summary: Satisfactory
Comment: I usually buy things for the long-haul and consider paying a bit more if the item offers good "value for money". So, when I saw a $50 online coupon, I decided to jump on it and buy the E75 for $250 directly from Nokia at [...].
This is my first Smartphone and so I did lots of research online and offline/local in-stores & compared various brands including Blackberries, Samsungs, iPhones, HTC and Nokia E Series. I needed a phone that is deceptively simple on the outside for making voice calls but yet offers full Smartphone functionality inside for both business & personal use. I also needed a minimum of 3.2 Megapixel camera with a fast video recorder and be able to listen to music & radio. Finally, I needed a phone to make international traveling easier.
The Nokia E75 seemed to fit my above needs as it is not too big or too small and offers ready access to a simple regular dialing keypad in the front and lets you use a QWERTY keyboard slide out.
Updated review: Feb 15, 2010: After owning this device for about 4 weeks, I have lowered my rating from 5 stars to 3 stars. Although it seemed to met my needs feature wise, its reliability seems to be questionable. Ocassionaly some keys seem to lockup during non-voice operations. Also, voicecall quality is becoming an issue. In fact I should have heeded to many professional reviewers who also pointed to questionable voice quality.
Finally, I decided to return this back to Nokia for a refund and replacing it with a Nokia E72 model.

Summary: Not quite ready for prime time
Comment: Phone has a lot of promise (turn-by-turn GPS works pretty well, nice form factor, solid build quality...), but the OS is not as polished as it should be for a $400+ smartphone. Two examples that were quite frustrating to resolve:
1 Some of the VOIP functionality has been stripped away. It is necessary to install additional software to restore the same functionality that was present on the E65: http://www.forum.nokia.com/info/sw.nokia.com/id/d476061e-90ca-42e9-b3ea-1a852f3808ec/SIP_VoIP_Settings.html
2 There are issues with the way access points are managed which can make email over VPN a pain in the rear if you don't get the configuration right on your first pass:

I'm sending mine back to Amazon. The overall user experience with my E65 is /much/ better. I'll stick with the E65 until Nokia irons out some of the kinks with the E75.

Summary: Great phone, Extremely poor battery life
Comment: The idea of this phone is pretty good, nice functionality and quality. The battery dies after 15 hours with messenger and/or email enabled. Nokia's email client is nice but pretty limited. I had to purchase an external solution to get the phone working properly with my email accounts. Also the phone is getting hot while working with internet connection related applications. I would give it 3 stars since the battery life is really painful issue.
Pros: design, functionality
Cons: poor battery life
