Blackberry Connect on E51
After logging onto Blackberry connect page on Nokia's business software page I was quiet amazed to find that the Nokia E51 has no Blackberry connect software link. So after googling bb connect for E51, I was taken to trusty old Blackberry forums where they said if you get the version for the E90 it would work, more specifically you must get v7.45.1 and it would work. So I downloaded it and hey presto I have BB Connect back up and running. All I can say about this E51 is that its awesome fast in everything, including going from one mail to another it opens it in half a sec, where on E90 it sook sometimes 3 seconds. To get the BB connect software go tp www.businesssoftware.com, select Blackberry connect and select e90. Download the client and install and in a few seconds you will be enjoying Blackberry email :-)

Hi, for downloading BB Connect onto E51, do I enter phone model as E90? When I go to download, Nokia asks for some details and in the drop down list E51 appears, though at the outset, E51 is missing from the 'compatible handset' list...I am a bit confused...should the phone in the drop down list when I am entering details be E90 or E51? Please help!

Do you need a 3G subscription to use blackberry connect with the E51 or is just a GPRS connection sufficient?
also, is the only download required on the client (mobile) ? does my IT department have to do anything by way of installing BC on "top of" existing Blackberry Enterprise Server?
Thanks
