Aside from the QWERTY keyboard, you can also use the alphanumeric touch screen keyboard. The connectivity options are ample with support for 3G network too. The web browser is useful, but it could be more user friendly. Owing to the GPS receiver with lifetime City Explorer license and Ovi Maps, the Nokia X6 facilitate navigation during your travel.
