Nokia E71 Navi Scroll Key In Action

It’s hard to believe it has been over a month since the Nokia OpenLab in Helsinki. As well, it has been a month since I have had a Nokia E71 device in my possession. Over this time I used it quite a bit in Helsinki, and only for the last couple of weeks here. But alas, it is time to send it back, and I am now working on my review of this amazing, hard-working device – look for it soon.

When I sat down to put some notes together on the E71, I looked at the phone and noticed the navigation button of the phone – or the Navi Scroll Key – glowing. This is a really neat add-on to the phone, going above and beyond as most of the design features of it have. When you press and hold the glowing key, you see the current time – another cool feature, as I don’t carry a watch and like many my mobile device is also my timepiece.

Needless to say, I was inspired and the following video came to mind, which I quickly shot with my Sony DSC-T200 digital camera and my Gorillapod tripod. Note I am not a filmmaker, but as a comedy improviser, I did it all in one take.

Enjoy! If you don’t see the embedded video, you can view it here.
