firmware

Nokia N95 8GB received a new firmware update v20.0.016, which allows for automatic screen rotation.

The new function is based on the device's in-built accelerometers, the fact that makes us wonder: why didn't they add this feature in the first place? Other updates include Wi-Fi and browser improvements.

The upgrade will be available first for the Euro-spec N95-2, followed by the N95-4 in the near future.

Apparently, there's a new firmware update available for the Nokia E90 smartphone.

Apart from tons of bug fixes and performance improvements, the new build (200.34.72.) offers support for Flash Lite 3 and upgrades the Quickoffice software to a new version 4.1.27.5. If you own a Nokia E90, consider upgrading your handset.
Below you see a more detailed list of changes.
