Nokia today released the Nokia N97 software update 2.0 that adds new functionalities and applications to the device. Read on to find out what’s on offer in the free download.


The standard version of the Nokia N97 software update 2.0 is available immediately through the PC on the Nokia Software Update website, and will be followed by a wide range of country and operator versions over the coming weeks, as well as the possibility to complete the update over-the-air.

Managing director Nokia Australia and New Zealand, Emile Baak, said: “We have listened to consumer feedback about the performance of the N97 and have added new features and functions.

“The response to the Nokia N97 since its launch has been phenomenal. In September 2009, we exceeded 2 million Nokia N97s sold worldwide and we look forward to the arrival of the Nokia N97 mini in Australia in Q1 2010,” Baak said.

Among the new experiences available with the free 2.0 software update are:
- ‘flip scrolling’ has been added in the entire user interface, making scrolling in all views very smooth
- shortcuts to personalised homescreen
- Ovi Maps 3.1
- Nokia Email (Nokia Messaging)
- Ovi Contacts
- Ovi Store

Nokia is constantly updating and enhancing its devices with new features, functions and fixes so people can get more out of their Nokia device years after buying it.

Nokia mobile users can check for new software by going to Menu > Applications > SW Update and enable automatic checking, or visit http://www.nokia.com/softwareupdate to download the version that is relevant to you.
