As a Nokia Series 60 smartphone, the 6682 has a vast array of both commercial and freeware/shareware software that can be installed. These applications range from games to e-mail applications to VPN support. This latest version of the Series 60 user interface adds what Nokia calls the Active Standby display. The Active Standby display is something akin to the Today screen on a PocketPC device, showing current tasks and calendar appointments, as well as a user-configurable set of icons that act as shortcuts to commonly used applications. You still have the option of using the old standby screen, though, in which case the four directions on the d-pad controller can be used as shortcuts in lieu of the icons.
In terms of data support, the 6682 supports both GPRS and the newer and faster EDGE standard. USB connectivity is also possible with a Nokia Pop-Port compatible USB cable. Bluetooth wireless support offers yet another means for connecting to a desktop or laptop PC.
If you are into messaging, the 6682 will let you hook up with both IMAP- and POP-based e-mail accounts right out of the box. SMS and MMS picture messaging is also available, and all of the message types are wrapped in one of the best all-around messaging apps available on a mobile phone today.
While the messaging app is good, the contacts manager in the 6682 is even better. Plus, you can use the freely available Nokia PC Suite software to sync up your 6682 with your desktop computer so that your contacts, calendar appointments, task list, and notes are available when you are away from your computer.
