    This seems to be a year of celebrations. After 25th anniversary of smiley and 15th birthday of sms , its time to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Nokia Communicators with the availability of Nokia E90 .

    Have a look at the first communicator launched by nokia in 1996

    If you go through wikipedia you will find some specs of older communicators with the one available now.

    1. Nokia 9000 launched in 1996

    Nokia 9000 Communicator was the first in Nokia’s Communicator series, introduced in 1996. The phone was huge and heavy (397 g) . The Communicator part is driven by an Intel 24 MHz 386 CPU. It has 8 MB of memory, which is divided between applications (4 MB), program memory (2 MB) and user data (2 MB). The operating system is Geos 3.0 .

    Gosh !! cant believe such kind of device ever existed in Nokia’s product catalog.

    2. Nokia 9110

It is one of the few mobile phones able to send and receive fax.

    4. Nokia 9500

    The 9500 is a highly capable communications device with 150MHZ OMAP processor and 64 MB ram, designed as a worktool for the busy executive or e-worker.

    5. Nokia E90

    Does this device need any introduction ?? Well most of you must be aware of this amazing device which is now available on sale. The price tag of near $800 - $900 makes it a bit costly.
    A small preview of nokia E90 was posted long before with two video reviews of Nokia E90 some days back. It is also seen that it can support upto 8gb sandisk card.


    As per Wikipedia Nokia 9300 and 9300i were not considered as communicators officially. They are very similar to nokia 9500 but a little smaller in size.

    I hope nokia will keep on improving and releasing these kind of high end technology devices. Have you used any communicator ?? Do share you opinion about them with comments !!!

    The 1996 communicator model looks somewhat like a suitcase. Nokia sure has come a long way since then!
