For those who do not want to follow this great link here is the basic of what is happening on those firmware updates and the devices that are being hinted at getting the upgrade. Mind you this is not my wording but that of the web site and those who posted to that site, so please don't shoot the messenger.
Despite the arrival of the new Symbian platform and new phones such as the Nokia X7 and E6, the older devices that people are carrying in their pockets for years have not been forgotten by any means. The software team at Nokia has been working hard on bringing updates to these phones, too, in order to improve their feature set, as well as to provide the usual fixes and improvements. These updates will be targeted at selected phones running Symbian 3.2 and Symbian 5.0, but let's break that down so we know exactly what that means: Symbian 3.2 a.. Nokia E72 b.. Nokia E52 c.. Nokia E5 d.. Nokia C5-00 e.. Nokia 6700 slide Symbian 5.0 a.. Nokia C6-00 b.. Nokia C5-03 c.. Nokia 5230 d.. Nokia 5235 e.. Nokia 5250 f.. Nokia X6 g.. Nokia N97 mini h.. Nokia 5800 XpressMusic i.. Nokia 5530 XpressMusic One of the key updates is the Nokia browser v7.3, the same that will be available for newer Symbian phone in the coming months with Symbian Anna. It provides faster browsing, supports International Domain Names (IDNs) and also supports non-ASCII letters such as Arabic or Chinese. Ultimately, you'll get a better browsing experience. Ovi Maps is another updated feature in these handsets, but there are two different versions to take into consideration. Ovi Maps 3 SR4 will feature on Symbian 3.2 devices, bringing indoor positioning through WiFi, as well as travel and recommendation services such as those through Lonely Planet. For users of Symbian 5.0 devices, you'll get Ovi Maps 3 SR6, adding public transport lines and check-in services to social networking sites. And finally, a set of emoticons will be added into all listed devices, giving you a fun way of expressing your feelings when writing text messages or sending MMSs to your friends and family. _______________________________________________ Talks mailing list Talks@talksusers.com http://lists.talksusers.com/mailman/listinfo/talks Hosting of this list provided courtesy of: eHosting Limited: http://www.ehosting.com/ and Talknav Inc. http://www.talknav.net/
