Ladies and Gentlemen, start your Nokia Software Updater.

Youtube support :)
I did the last update using XP SP2 on Parallels (Macbook Pro). It was scary enough that I think I'll use a real Windows machine this time rather than a VM.
If I'm honest, it's nice to finally see Nokia supporting a phone properly and adding functionality...it's the first communicator to have this and my customer satisfaction is greatly increased.
This is the first Nokia smartphone I've had (well I had a 3650 a while ago). I've been using UIQ ones before. Their FW update seemed a bit less fraught. Could have been the fact I did it from a VM though.
I agree it is good to have fairly regular FW updates though.
75Megs! Not bad.
Note: If you use Blackberry on your E90, you will have to get the latest client from Nokia as well.
So far I've had to reinstall a few apps after the upgrade. Google Maps, Nokia maps and fring all had to be re-installed.
Embedded flash video still not working you youtube etc. I can see the thumb nail, but the video never starts.
Upgrade is well worth it though as the phone is a lot faster with smoother menus etc. My Contacts is no longer sluggish for example.
The upgrade will reset your device security, default lock code is "12345"
help! after this firmware update my blackberry does`nt work (client 7.45.1). Its the standard bb not bes. Receive the activation mail but no accounts. Provider Vodafone. Nokia suggest repair? Vodafone suggests Nokia?
problem with bb now solved. Vodafone Client not compatible but under "other" (business software) ver 8.14.1 now working
