If you’re an N95 8GB user and often wondered why Nokia left out an auto screen rotate feature, worry no more. A new application has been created just for you. With the new firmware update (v20.0.016) users will find that just like in the Nokia N82, the N95’s screen can now rotate to landscape mode automatically when tilted. You won’t need to open the media keypad anymore to switch to landscape. All thanks to an accelerometer that drives the application, as in the N82. Other updates to the firmware include support for more Bluetooth headsets as well as some bug fixes for the browser and Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, what Nokia seems to have left out is Nokia Maps 2.0 and the new update for the N-Gage application. How odd. Nevertheless, the recent upgrade seems like it will only make the phone that much more appealing to users.
