Nokia Photo Browser updated to work with non-touch Symbian S60 3rd Edition FP1 and FP2 phones

Remember that cool-looking Nokia Photo Browser for Symbian S60 touch-enabled devices like the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic we covered two weeks ago? Well, the Finnish giant’s Beta labs has updated the application and now it works on non-touch phones as well. Actually, only devices running Symbian S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 and 2 are included in the mix, leaving owners of such phones as the Nokia N73, E61 and N93 empty handed.

There are actually two versions of the app available – one for S60 3.1 and S60 3.2 phones without accelerometer, and the other one for S60 3.2 phones with a built-in accelerometer. In the latter category are such phones as the Nokia N86, E75, 6720 Classic, 5730XM, E55, N79, N85, N96 and 6210 Navigator; and this version also works on the 5800 XM and the upcoming N97. The final stage — when Nokia Photo Browser leaves the beta stage — will involve a single installation file for all S60 variations. In the meantime, you’ll have to pick your version for yourself, which honestly is not a big deal.
