Nokia’s aging N95 has gotten an early holiday gift in the form of a firmware update bringing it up to v31. Aside from being one “vee” higher, mum’s the word on what precisely is getting overhauled with this massive 140MB update. So if you’re sitting on an N95 and feel inspired to drop us a line with your update observations, we’d welcome the info. Though, remember, all manner of things can go wrong while performing firmware surgery, so please back up your goods before getting to work.

Update: Seems the N85 getting the same update treatment as the N95 with a v11 refresh. Items addressed include key handling for missed keys — telepathy improvements, maybe? — short and long presses on the hotkeys, various power handling tweaks, and various issues with video calling.

N82 users seem to be among the most diehard fans in the entire Nseries stable, so we’d say they’re owed a bone as a token of Nokia’s appreciation for spreading the gospel. To that end, Espoo has brought firmware v30’s splendors to the N82 hot on the heels of its N95 and N95 8GB debuts, offering a new Flash Lite build, Maps 2.0, speed and stability improvements, and a host of other tweaks. Sadly there’s no N-Gage client bundled, but whatever — it’s available as a separate download, so no harm, no foul.
