The long-awaited N96 has a marvellous multitude of talents – and one more has just been revealed: it’ll be able to access the Beeb’s iPlayer!
Yes, Nokia has collaborated with the BBC to build an app enabling N96 users to both download and stream programmes from the service over both 3G and Wi-Fi. So come the phone’s October 1st official launch date, anyone lucky enough to own one can watch the likes of Eastenders, Dragon’s Den and, er, Spooks Code 9 from wherever they are.
As ever, keep it locked here for all your N96 news.
