In the midst of the election yesterday, it was easy to miss some big Nokia news that dropped stateside. Nokia has officially announced that the Nokia n96 will finally be sold in their brick and mortar stores. Before the announcement the only viable means of obtaining a Nokia n96 was ordering it from an online vendor. The Chicago, and New York stores will be the first places to have the Nokia n96 available. This is a great day for people curious about the Nokia n96. Because as much information about the handset there is online, nothing beats being able to actually see the product and hold it.

This one slipped under my radar today - but better late than never... Nokia have un-officially launched N-Gage and this time it's for real!
No more limited trials on limited handsets - this is the real deal. You can download the application here http://www.n-gage.com/ngi/ngage/web/no/en/get_ngage/download.html But be warned - there are some teething problems: - The N-Gage site is very slow at the moment and user's are reporting errors in creating new account's or logging in with existing accounts.
- Access points - the system seems to choose weird access points for your handset, you can change the defaults to your required access points but you must EXIT N-GAGE AND THEN RE-START THE APPLICATION for the changes to take effect.
- System crashes - some N95 user's have reported system freezing / crashing after installing the N-Gage application - if this happens to you then reboot your handset and it should fix it.

Rumour has it that Nokia are planning on releasing a firmware update for the N95 8Gb - THAT WILL INCLUDE ROTATE ME FUNCTIONALITY AS STANDARD! Yep - you read that right! According to Symbian-Freak http://www.symbian-freak.com/quides/firmware/logs/new_n95_8gb_firmware_v20_change_log.htm the new version V20.0.016 will include ASR (Automatic Screen Rotation) which is what RotateMe does... If it's true then a big hat's off to Nokia for watching what the community was doing / downloading / using and responding. Now all we need is yet another update for the original N95 (1) so that we can have ASR too :) Comments (7) | Add as favourites (65) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 4939 |

Firstly let me applogise for not updating this site for a few days - my "day job" as a web developer has seen a dramatic upturn in clients and has had me working on those website's instead. To make amends I have uploaded some new, cool themes to the downloads section here: http://www.nokia-n95.net/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=120&func=select&id=7 New additions include: - Will and Grace
- Lost Season 3
- KnightRider
- Superman
- Wonder Woman
Have fun and happy downloading!

There are quite a few people (us included) who have been waiting for the past few weeks for symbiansigned.com to re-enable the open-signed signing service so that we can get cool freeware apps like RotateMe and SlideHangup installed on our / your phones - Well they have finished their "upgrading" and have launched a new "Open Signed Online" service - which to be fair is 100% totally free and available to anyone BUT (didn't you just know that there was a BUT coming...) the open signed service is aimed at developers and without going into to many technical details only the application developer can sign their application for their phone  Well done SymbianSigned - you have just killed open source symbian development! While it is true that application developers CAN develop their apps so that they are not the "owner" it still means that all previous apps cannot be installed on your N95's. There is currently a lot of discussion going on at the moment on various forums (including the SymbianSigned developer forums) and no-one is 100% sure if this situation is permanent or not. I am just waiting to see if purchasing a Publisher ID will allow me to sign files for you guys - if it does then I will spend my dosh to get one and get you guys your files!

Well not quite but it's very funny all the same... This video turned up on YouTube last week (sorry I was so slow getting it up here) but it shows a young guy using his N95 to hack into a big screen at a train station and then stream live HD quality video to it... This is a fake but it's really funny and worth a watch - I especially like the bit where he singles out a guy in the crowd with his N95 and tells him he has won a car!

We all know that technology moves on - what is "flagship" today is ancient tomorrow and Nokia are by no means ammune to this constant technological race... So it had to happen one day, and happen it has. Nokia have announced the new 2008 "flagship" model - the replacement for the N95 if you like... The N96!
The specs on this new model - due out around the 3rd quarter of 2008 are very very impressive for a mobile device, but it seems that Nokia still have not learnt by some of the basic N95 flaws. Comments (3) | Add as favourites (47) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 2293 |

It's official! The recently rumoured v20 firmware is now available for non-branded N95-1's (Original N95's). The changelog is a bit flaky at the moment but the highlights are: - Demand Paging! (increased memory on boot up and faster application load times and memory handling)
- Integrated N-Gage application
- Nokia search 4.0 on active standby screen
- key-press "bug" gone (hopefully)
- New "Welcome" application
- Camera tweaks - including faster shot to shot times. (apparently a LOT faster!)
- "My Nokia" web portal integrated.
- YouTube video's now play in the browser.
- More...
To get the latest firmware you need to have a non-branded handset (search this site for instructions on how to debrand your N95) and then just plug it into your PC and use the Nokia updater. I'll be updating mine shortly so I'll let you all know the improvements.... WARNING: upgrading your firmware will loose all your data so back up everything first! De-Branding your handset is fine as long as you follow the instructions - but if you get it wrong then you can damage your handset. This website takes no responsibility for anyone debranding and breaking their phone! Comments (5) | Add as favourites (36) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 1428 |

The new all black N95 8Gb started to ship from Nokia yesterday - with a little surprise installed... Nokia have teamed up with Sony entertainment to pre-load the 8Gb with the full Spiderman 3 film PLUS ringtone, message alert tone, theme and screensaver!  Why? Well according to Nokia: "The Movie sees Spider-Man's suit turn jet-black and enhance his powers and, in its latest incarnation, the Nokia N95 has undergone a similar transformation to emerge as the Nokia N95 8GB."
