Thanks to Steve Rowlands over at S60blogger.com, who, points out a work around for anyone really stupid keen to update their stupid Nokia firmware.
Nokia took the decision, last week, to disable firmware updates for 80 million Windows Vista users. Highlighting just how piss poor poor their strategy is compared to the likes of Apple.
Steve makes the point that you can, theoretically, run the Nokia Software Updater in ‘Windows XP compatibility mode’. Although he also points out that this might not be very stable at all and suggests erring on the side of caution and not actually doing this.
Me? I’ll sit and stare at the wall some more with my outdated Nokia E90. Joy. I remain unimpressed.
