There is a strong possibility that Nokia’s team has drank Redbull in excess. Thursday, Steve Litchfield caught a fault in Nokia Software Update site, it appeared that v200.34.72 firmware was available, from the previous v7.40.12 firmware.

The changes as follows:

  • Flash Lite 3 added, with Flash video support
  • Support for Web runtime is probably here as well, it tends to come along with FL3 - can anyone confirm this?
  • Maps won’t open (for me, at least), you get instructed to go to the web for the latest version. Clumsy. On the web, v1.0 is shown and v1.02 is served up, which at least installs and runs fine. I’m sure the latest v2.0 beta would, too.
  • New ‘Set up Internet telephony’ shortcut on standby screen
  • Includes Quickoffice 4.1.27.5, many enhancements over the old 3.85, although without the extra functions of the v4.5 and v5.0 paid upgrades. There are also extra options in Quickmanager, specifically more rebrands of Epocware products. The new Quickoffice is apparently back-ported from the version which will be standard in S60 3rd Edition FP2.
  • Application opening and booting seem faster. I don’t think that v200 has demand paging though - seems more like optimisations.
  • A boat load of bug fixes and tweaks. The ‘Today’/# bug in Calendar seems to have gone away. Anyone confirm this with a decent size Calendar dataset? Also, let’s hope Web is more stable!

However, there some faults in Maps and Web applications according to Steve, and Nokia has removed the update from their website and NSU application, few corrections, and “v200″ will be ready again.

Nokia E90 v2 in MWC?

e90newos8 Nokia E90 v2 in MWC?

That was kind of unofficial, but Cellpassion got a glimpse of it.

It seems that there aren’t many changes, only exterior ones, Nokia realised that the E90 needed a plastic surgery for better build quality. I’m not sure how "better" this edition is, but according to most sources, it’s worth to wait for this than buy the regular E90.

If you look to the E90 in the picture you will notice that it has a new colour, it seems bigger, and has no scratches on the display, unlike it’s counterpart on the right.

LG KT610 a competitor for E90?

gsmarena045ii4 LG KT610 a competitor for E90?

 

Reading the features will tell you exactly that, but does it really live to the competition?

 

Well it does have a GPS, HSDPA, Symbian OS9.2 S60 v3.1, and a full QWERTY keyboard. The camera is a bit disappointing, with only 2 megapixels of resolution, it stays behind the Nokia E90, but what is hidden beneath the clamshell is the beautiful VGA resolution display.

 

If the phone isn’t released too late, it won’t make a difference that it lacks of a touchscreen or it only has 64MB on internal memory, although a memory card can be added.

 

On the design size, it looks like a very old phone, especially if you look at the keys, and I was expecting the display atleast a bit bigger.
