After we got a peek into Nokia's internal roadmap document yesterday, which showed the E63's development completion.
According to the document, the E 63's prototype was expected in week 44 of this year. Nokia has been quite quick in announcing the latest phone, Nokia E63 - an affordable QWERTY smartphone. Priced at EUR 199 (Rs. 12,000 approx.), the E63 is kid brother of E71 and comes in plastic-fibre like body and 2 megapixel camera with fixed focus. Unlike E71, the E63 does not have infrared, HSDPA connection and GPS.
The E63 has an inset screen and is slightly smaller than the E71. Other improvement in E63 is the 3.5mm jack for music instead of 2.5mm jack found in E71. Along with that E63 also includes support for Files on Ovi, which that allows user to remotely access the PC files even when computer is offline. Files on Ovi also offers 1GB online storage for free to E63 buyers.
Switching between corporate mode (mail, appointments, intranet data) to personal mode (pictures, shortcuts) is made possible by single key press.

Nokia will commence shipping in coming weeks. Let's hope India also gets this phone soon.
