Smashing Hasmukh's Phone (Not REALLY)

Nothing much happened today (Tuesday), came home, messed about for a couple of hours went to bed fell asleep awoke 6pm ate dinner came to work quite quiet and that's it so far, no need even for punctuation.

However, in the morning I'm going to try and update the firmware on Hasmukh's N95



so that could be fun. I'll let you know what happens.

Managed to get it done - installed Nokia N95 software version 31.0.015.

This software release includes music player playlist enhancements, Nokia Music store application fixes and embedded N-Gage games. Other changes are for Maps 2.0 and Flash lite 3.0 support.

The whole procedure was fraught with tension because, it takes so long, you have to have the sim card in but can't take calls whilst updating (what about incoming) and if it goes wrong - the phone gets turned into a brick.

Started at approx 08.30 fin approx 11.00.

On another phoney note (there's got to be a pun in there somewhere) I'm really getting tied up in knots trying to decide what phone to upgrade to when my contract terminates in September. Obviously, in these times of financial hardship, it's fnally going to come down to price, BUT if price were no object I'm split between the following (5)

1. The Next Model iPhone (rumoured for this summer)

2. The New Nokia N97

3. The Samsung Omnia HD

4. The Nokia N86 8MP

5. The Palm Pre
