Have just upgraded my N80 to an N80ie by using NSS to change the product code ( I used 0538301 but I guess any N80ie code will work ) then NSU found new firmware and hey prestos N80IE:victory:
Phone now shows
V 4.0632.0.38

Nokia N80(01)
Just a couple of things to watch out for. The first time I did it I backed up and then restored the phone and card memory. When I restored I lost the internet folder. Best to just sync. your phone to save messages, contacts etc. then sync. back after upgrade. Also any Java apps and some Sis apps on the phone will need to be reinstalled as they do not all run after the update so make sure you have copies of the files available. Can confirm that TomTom 6 works without a hitch although you need to re-establish link with GPS reciever first time you use it. Have also installed podcast which is available on the N80ie web site and it works but as most of the video feeds are in M4V format you need to convert them but audio feeds are OK. Have not tried internet phone as yet but will try that tommorow as I have no Wifi at home (Big hint to wife might work that one out though! ) Good luck
