Thanks Alex. This isn't locked to Orange but seems to have the same firmware as yours.
Anyway, I'm leaving well alone for the moment and getting to grips with K-Reader etc, then I'll see what I think about performance.

Carol, the n86 8mp is the only n86. I'm with Orange, and the latest firmware is 20.15, I believe there are later firmware versions but they're not available to phones locked to orange.
