Minor firmware update for Nokia N80
has been released MCU SW v4.0632.0.38

Nokia has released a new firmware (v4.0623.0.42) version for the Nokia N80 Smartphone.

This the probably the smallest change log that I have ever seen but its suggestible to update phone anyway.

Firmware 4.0632.0.38 will be available progressively in the next few days in the official Nokia Points and Nokia Service Points as well as on the Nokia Software Updater server.
