John McClane’s Nokia E61/2
As those of you who have seen the Summer Blockbuster Die Hard 4: Live Free or Die Hard, can tell, John McClane is not only a good Detective but has impeccable taste when it comes to mobile devices

John and many other characters in the film are using Nokia devices.
Thanks for the photos John McClane!

For someone in his line of work he DEFINITELY needs a case for that thing
July 26th, 2007 at 8:13 am
A case is definitely a must! He should also think about upgrading as the metal on the E61i can definitely withstand more of a beating. Plus, I can think of a few apps that would really help him - that thing is fresh out of the box!
July 26th, 2007 at 8:24 am
But E61 is not John’s phone. It’s stolen. Have John some phone in movie? Only his friend hacker
has some communicator. Whole movie was good Nokia’s advertisement…

the Card does not have a Number starting with “1″
!!
Hmmmm???

@jeasbe’: nice observation there! however, in the US, every time you dial long distance within the nation you need to dial ‘1′ before the area code.
July 26th, 2007 at 10:04 am
The Transformers also featured N93 and 8800 Sirocco i think…
July 26th, 2007 at 10:09 am
you don’t need to dial ‘1′ first on a cell phone, although it still works if you do. But maybe McClane doesn’t know that.
July 26th, 2007 at 10:09 am
I think it is not John’s E61, but it belongs to the hacker. And the hacker ask John to dispose it due to security reason
July 26th, 2007 at 10:14 am
not gonna be much of a phone call…no signal and a near flat battery!!
July 26th, 2007 at 11:03 am
They also showed nokia 9300i , N90 and E61
Ocean’s Eleven showed a Gold Samsung
so it’s product placment year for Cell phones
July 26th, 2007 at 12:07 pm
haha a case is for pussy’s, it’s just phone guys use it and we all know we will buy a new one within 12 months, with ALL the latest tech. Im lovin my e61i
I;m i right or what
July 26th, 2007 at 12:51 pm
If anyone needs a E61 camo paintjob its John McClane!
July 26th, 2007 at 1:00 pm
Great, the E is in a movie. how do i get a movie on the E. Any suggestions
July 26th, 2007 at 1:45 pm
LOL
I noticed the same when watching the film. There definitely has been some product placement here.
July 26th, 2007 at 3:02 pm
No signal - must be on AT&T.
July 26th, 2007 at 5:01 pm
wow! It’s so nice to see our phones being used in movies, makes us feel all that more special!
July 26th, 2007 at 7:19 pm
Yeah, John stole the phone from a business type walking down the road. Hacker (I’m a mac) boy has an impossibly fast 9300(i?) that does all kinds of magic (he must have hacked/upgraded it). Nokia must have paid good money to advertise its phone - I believe only Nokia phones got any screen time during Die Hard 4. I seem to recall some shots of the e90 as well.
July 26th, 2007 at 8:54 pm
Actually, I took more notice on the 9300. But definitely, Nokia was the real star of the show, in transformers too. =p
Just… make sure u charge your batteries!
July 26th, 2007 at 11:01 pm
“you don’t need to dial ‘1′ first on a cell phone, although it still works if you do. But maybe McClane doesn’t know that.”
@ignostic: mcclane dials ‘1′ coz he’s 0ld sk00l. f33r plz.
July 27th, 2007 at 12:24 am
Its still john mobile at the time he uses it :P,,,,also i think reason there was no network was also because these hackers were trying to take over the country……i hate seeing wat he does next with that e61 tho ,,,,,truthlly i cried
very sad scene……..
July 27th, 2007 at 1:41 am
Yeah it isn’t his and I don’t think the hackers neither. Just grabbed it from someone on the street. It was a pain inside of me as he slapped it onto the concrete sidewalk. Ok, depositing for security reasons… Why not. But then donate it to someone or place it carefully on a cab etc.
Hm, think the 9300 was stolen to… I need this “connect anywhere and kicks ass” cable!
btw. Although I love my E61i i am certain that the E61 takes more of a beating. (Thicker Metal, Heavy screen Armor etc.)
July 27th, 2007 at 3:41 am
How exactly do you know that the phone is a E62 ? to me it looks same as E61.
July 27th, 2007 at 6:07 am
That phone doesn’t belong to a hacker, look at the theme he’s using. A hacker would have black and green or red.
July 27th, 2007 at 12:47 pm
maybe he is a hacker that wants to be different maybe…….:P
July 28th, 2007 at 7:13 am
I went to see it twice…
My wife nudged me and asked and pointed out…”Didn’t you have those phones at one point?”…..
I was sitting there grinning from ear to ear.
Did anyone notice that John McClane’s daughter (in the elevator) was using a Nokia N70?
July 28th, 2007 at 12:00 pm
yeah nokia is all over the place they have been featured in several fall out boy and the academy is… videos as well.
July 29th, 2007 at 7:44 am
Sweeet!!! Finally, Hollywood realises that flip phones are so yesterday and smartphones like the E-series are in!!!
Go Nokia E61!!! :p
August 9th, 2007 at 5:54 am
Yeah and 5 secondes later in that same movie BRUCE dumps the E62 in a trashcan! NICE exposure NOT
August 13th, 2007 at 12:15 pm
A real thing is that shot! Nice to be in the company of such phoneholders! Smartphones for smart people! Not a bad motto,hm!;-)
August 15th, 2007 at 8:49 pm
Terrorists and Bruce Willis had the Nokia E61 and Nokia N90. The Apple Guy, Justin Long, had a Nokia E61 and Nokia 9300. The evil hacker had a Nokia 770 tablet.
August 15th, 2007 at 9:09 pm
In the end berry or nokia or berry or nokia decisions decisions its business applications that work with each other the way we need them to if they could get it all in the device and get it to work. At one point i thought windows mobile could do it but the fell asleep at the wheel i have a 9300 e61 curve 8300 and an 8800 7100 mpx 200 and 220 hp ipaq phone an sda t mobile cingular 8125 and in the end the Canadian one wins camera wi-fi nav software memo pad all the chat options you can handle with 3rd party software and its the smallest of the lot its a sad day when i wish they made a belt for all of them and shared my one number i guess now all we need now is an i phone with blackberry support with a usb port for my 120 gig hard drive full of music and get it implanted in my ears. Look out future here we go.
As if i didn’t have enough phones that 770 tablet is SWEET any one want to trade lol.
August 18th, 2007 at 1:03 pm
u dont need someone to jam cingular networks… my phone pretty much shows that much (NO) signal at work too!!
September 6th, 2007 at 4:35 am
[...] movie. Following on from Dex’s post about Nokia phones in Transformers and Die Hard 4.0, and Ed’s photos of Die Hard hero John McClane (Bruce Willis) with the E61/62, we have Demi Moore using a [...]

Il va avoir du mal a téléphoner, car il n’y a pas de réseaux disponible… Gnarkk gnark.
October 1st, 2007 at 11:24 pm
I was amazed that my phone Nokia 9300 was in the movie,particularly the hacker used it with John.Now I learned how to used it regularly when i have something to hack too,,,amazing phone.
I love the movie Die Hard 4….It tops here in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
October 15th, 2007 at 10:35 pm
I cringed when John threw the E61.. cos i love my E61..
November 30th, 2007 at 8:07 am
Guys I really wanted to know if an E61 housing will fit on an E62?
November 30th, 2007 at 12:21 pm
The E61 and E62 use different connectors. The E62 uses mini USB and the E61 use the Nokia POP port so the housing will not fit where the connectors are placed.
December 2nd, 2007 at 2:31 pm
Sir the mini usb port and pop port are located in the middle housing right? What if I install only the E61’s front housing and battery lid on the E62 will that work?
I have an E62 (from US) with worn out housing and I need to replace it but there’s no E62 replacement parts here in the Phils.
Thanks a lot!
March 13th, 2008 at 10:34 am

Lock Code
I forgot :((( because long time didn’t use it
