You thought the Nokia E71x is cheap at $99 from AT&T? Amazon is offering is for just one cent when packaged with a qualifying service plan. The Nokia E71x is a feature-packed phone, sporting almost every possible feature and connectivity option possible, but sadly the Symbian platform is not widely accepted in the United States. Could this possibly turn the tide for Nokia USA?
