Using Nokia Software Updater

After discovering the software doesn’t have the latest v4 firmware for the N80, I had a go at upgrading my old 6630 to the new v6 firmware. The software is very easy to use, took about 12-15 minutues to update and can sit alongside phoenix and PC Suite..
Step 1:
The software searches for updates and lets you know if there are any - you tick the box to say you agree this could potentially kill your phone.
Update 1

Step 2:
The software insists you connect your phone to a charger (best be safe than sorry, I guess)

Step 3:
The software downloads the software. This took about 6/7 minutes on a 1MB connection.

Step 4:
The software reboots the phone and starts the update. Again this took about 6-7 mins

Step 5:
Done! The phone restarts.

No word yet, but just keep trying. It might take longer if you have an operater-specific firmware (i.e. Orange).
