- Over-the-air (OTA) updates via Wi-Fi and WiMax connections
- Update of the email client to Modest with several enhancements to the user interface and additional support of several mobile-friendly email features.
- Addition of Chinese fonts to the system font list
- Miscellaneous bug fixes to OpenSSL
- Browser panning fixes
- A-GPS support for the N810 and N810WE
- Updates to the Wayfinder GPS application
- and more
Because this is not a major update, most applications will continue to work from the previous version (OS2008) without a problem.This OS2008 Feature update is compatible with the Nokia N800 and N810 Internet Tablets. Previous versions of the Internet Tablet platform — specifically the Nokia 770 – are not supported.
