Latest N82 Firmware Upgrade Brings Flash Lite 3, Geotagging, and Web Runtime

The gods of firmware upgrade this time have smiled upon the Nokia N82, upgrading it to V 20.0.62. This release adds Flash Lite 3, so the phone can stream flash content. It also brings integrated geotagging, so that there is no need to use a 3rd party app like Shozu to geotag the pictures taken on the phone. It also finally brings Web Runtime which if I understand correctly, monitors the usage of the web browser, from execution to termination. There are also tweaks to bluetooth and camera settings.

On a relevant note so far in the last few months most of the hi-end Nokia Nseries devices have received a significant firmware upgrade. The only shining exception is the N95-3, the poor child of the Nseries family left alone in front of the door footsteps of the US consumer market.
