The Nokia beta labs has just coughed up two new betas for us to enjoy. The first is an email service, named in Nokia’s time honored tradition of boring names for betas as, Nokia Email service.
The service lets you connect to “Google Gmail or many of the thousands of personal email accounts offered by other ISPs” and is apparently a cinch to use too. At the moment neither Hotmail or corporate email are supported, though this could well be subject to change with future updates to the service.
As per usual, all of the typical operator charges apply and while the beta of Nokia Email is free, there will be subscription charges introduced at the end of the beta trial.
The second beta application on offer is Nokia Chat. It’s basically an instant messaging service but with a few added extras. For example you can send voice messages with it and it’s all tied to some clever GPS wizardry that lets you share your location via Nokia Maps with your Nokia Chat friends and contacts.
It certainly sounds pretty forward thinking and the application is available to download in free beta form now.
