Jennifer Garner Spotted With Latest Cell Phone Star, Nokia E71
Somehow, the Nokia E71 got itself in front of some casting directors who declared that the smartphone was going to be a star.
First it showed up as the phone of Sandra Bullock's character in The Proposal, and now Jennifer Garner was snapped with the E71 on the set of her new movie, Valentine's Day.
So what's so appealing about the phone?
Sandra Bullock's Cell Phone in The Proposal
This past weekend I happened to catch The Proposal on the big screen, and as captivated as I was by the hilarious plot line, I couldn't help but take notice at Sandra Bullock's character — Margaret Tate's — cell phone obsession. A big executive editor-in-chief of a book publishing company, Margaret convinces her assistant (Andrew, played by Ryan Reynolds) to marry her so she won't get deported back to Canada.
During a trip to Alaska for his grandmother's 90th birthday party, Margaret's white Nokia E71 is stolen by a hawk (I know, sounds far-fetched, but it's such a funny scene), so she has Andrew order her a new phone.
Alicia Keys Shows Off a Nokia E71 in Superwoman Vid
When Cellphone 9 pointed out that Alicia Keys was rocking a Nokia N71 in her Superwoman video, I couldn't help but take a closer look. With a few good close-ups (thankfully front and back shots), I thought wait a minute, that isn't a N71 — a flip phone which came out a couple of years ago — it's actually a Nokia E71 smartphone! The E71 still has yet to make its debut in the US market, but it's already receiving a lot of attention.
