Hi, The firmware is the software, or the brains of the phone. The operating system if you like. Nokia improve it every so often, and then release updates.

Explain as if you were talking to a child please or someone who knows nothing about phones. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hussein Patwa" <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 06, 2010 4:58 PM Subject: [talks-uk] Re: contacts Hi Eleanor, It'll be interesting to see what your niece discovers when and if she's able to get to a phone shop. BTW, the firmware 30.101 was only released towards the end of last year. It was released in a batch along with firmware for the N95, N95-8GB and N82. The v30.033 was the one released in August, although the firmware is timestamped July. _______________________________________ Have a pleasant day, Kind Regards and Best Wishes, Hussein.
