Nokia launches Belle Feature Pack 2 firmware OTA, Pureview 808 gets extra imaging goodies

Like the proverbial groundhog, Nokia’s Feature Pack 2 for Symbian Belle peeked out a bit too early last month and had to withdraw back into its burrow. Now the new firmware upgrade for the Nokia 701, 700, 602 and Pureview 808 is out for realsies, with the latter star of the lineup getting the lion’s share of new trinkets. Specifically, the big-sensored phone will now have a landscape Gallery Grid view option, which will enable faster and easier zooming, editing and sharing of images; more picture info like ISO value, white balance and location; and a reset button to get back to the default image setting in one touch. All the above Symbian Belle phones will get an updated browser with better HTML5 support, a (much) faster keyboard, the Video Pro editing application and Car Mode — which gives “easy access to your phone’s key features when you’re driving,” according to Nokia. If that makes you feel better about your legacy Nokia OS investment after all the company’s Windows Phone 8 hoopla, check the source to see how to get it.
