I'm still using a the predessor of the E71 (a 2 year old E61). I got the phone with the soul purpose to use it with a SIP capable PBX (asterisk)
Using the SIP client in the phone allows me free communication to my home office, my own conference bridge, my own voice mail, my own unified communication and I can use any free minutes or promotions that I have on a fixed PSTN line at my home office.
The phone is defined as an extension in my home/office setup and I can pick up the phone when somebody rings the office from around the world, as long as I have wifi.
This setup works perfectly in a certain French banking/insurance company you know well.
If you want to use the SIP client in the E71 without to much setup I can give you 2 test accounts accounts to play with.
I wish for a Nokia Suite for Linux version however.
