N76 firmware update adds A2DP
Published by Rafe Blandford at 11:34 UTC, August 15th 2007
A new firmware update is available for the Nokia N76. Continuing the trend set with other devices the update adds the A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth Profiles for stereo audio over Bluetooth. The menu structure has also been rearranged and there are a number of stability improvements and bug fixes.
Nokia has added the A2DP profile to a number of Nseries devices over the last few months.
A2DP can be used with a variety of Bluetooth products including headphones, streamers and speakers. See our reviews of the Nokia BH-500 Stereo Bluetooth Headset and Nokia BH-501 Stereo Bluetooth Headphones.

I hope us N93 owners are next in line. After all, we payed through the nose for what was then Nokia's flagship phone (then came N95, taking over that role). I'd hate it if we were forgotten in this.

very true, even 93i is getting upgrades, we want an update and we really want one

It appears as if all the nseries phones except the n93 have gotten upgrades. With A2DP. Shame on Nokia for just forgetting the n93 owners. It cost me a lot of money when I bought it, and now I dont see any support from Nokia for it.

I agree totally.
The latest firmware update for the n93 was a long time ago, and left some serious flaws in it. For example, it does not work with my bluetooth carkit anymore!
The phone itself still has unique features that others don't too - for example, its optical zoom. For them to dump this phone at a whim like that.... makes me want to get anything but nokia next time.

if they can add this update to the N series i wish they would add it to the e65. doesnt seem to make sense to me they wouldnt want to keep their phones up to date and competitive with the competition. its frustrating and i have even tried to go to the nokia site to email them, but getting to an email address for them is impossible for me.
support sucks nokia. help the ppl that give you money
