where can i download v12.043 software for n96 in south africa? divx does not work properly no matter what u do, it is a known issue with the n96 due 2 its larger screen size giving it incorrect proportions.

Yes I agree, the battery life (even with power savings) sucks baddly. though the Nokia BL-6F battery does fit and work correctly, but makes the back case a little high. other then that, my only gripes are the keypad is horrible to use.

Nokia N96 a phone that rocks but Nokia makes it suck because of the poor battery life but guess what? I still prefer it to any other phone for this reason i go out with my charging box anytime anyday also i've got an extra battery.
It is a nice phone better than the Nokia N95 8GB.
Its 5MP cam makes it better than my iphone.

I own three of the Nokia N 96 Phones.
We are returning all three due to the short battery life.
Generally my phone only lasts about 20 minutes per charge over a couple of days
I don't play music or watch videos and have chosen the low power options.
Anyone else having this problem??

i heard that the n96 does not play divx properly. is there any other video player that works equal or better than divx on the n96 because its meant 2 be a multimedia device and there is no point of getting it if it cant play simple software that even the n95 can play

yes but omnia has free garmin gps and i just went 2 mtn 2day and they said the dvbh tv is internet dependent and has 2 be downloaded from the internet at R2 a meg! thats madness! they also said many n96 came back 2 them due 2 crashing and freezing which did not occur in the n95.
