Nokia N96 gets an update, too; Firmware reaches 20.050

Nokia (NYSE: NOK) has actually unveiled the updated firmware version for its N96 model before they did the same for the N79 and N85. Yeah, we missed it, but it’s here now, nonetheless.

As usual, the latest firmware fixes many of the known bugs from the previous firmware, ensuring the device is more stable than before. In addition, some of the existing applications are updated, and there are also some new apps included with the firmware upgrade.

For instance:

• Nokia Email client and Mail for Exchange (MfE) is now preloaded on the device
• Settings Wizard has reached version 5.0
• Active Standby Email Plug-in is included to show new emails on Active Standby screen
• Audio Themes are supported
• Slideshow can be used as wallpaper
• WiFi Protected Setup
• Support of IAD (Independent Application Delivery) – allows certain apps to be updated independently over the air.

And the list goes on. You can get the full release log from Spazio Cellulare… As always, we advise you to push the trigger and update your N96.
