Mobile Industry Review went into Symbian Smartphone Show 2008 and shot some footage with a couple vendors.  Alot of intersting stuff, but if you want to hit the heat Id recommend skipping to 7:35.  Scalado shows off a photo software that runs smooth as butter.  Not only is it smooth but its entirely software based, NO HARDWARE ACCELERATION! Amazing.  Cant wait for this to hit for download.

Its out! But only to the lucky EU clientele of the N95.  Amongst some of the changes listed in the changelog courtesy of P@sco.

• Automatic Rotation of Screen
• Improved WebSearch support with the addition of Google
• Improved stability within the browser and overall function of the phone
• Maps 2.0 with pedestrian support
• Full N-Gage Application

Once the firmware update crosses over I’m sure there will be more excitement, but for now we can appreicate the new firmware from afar and wait for some new handsets!  On a side note I am very impressed on how much effort goes into keeping phones updated from Nokia.  Previous to the N95 I was a WinMobile user and I rarely ever remember firmware updates that are as helpful as the ones released from Nokia.
