Nokia have updated their Ovi Store with a number of useful improvements aimed at enhancing the overall user experience.
Improvements include:
- Five Star ratings for content (previously content was rated out of three stars).
- When an application is reviewed the review makes a note of the device used, for example an N97 or E52 etc
- You must have downloaded an app or game etc to review it.
- Changes to app detail page allowing more useful information and screenshots etc

After two months my love affair with the Nokia N97 is over, it’s been shortlived I know, but I expect certain things from my mistress’s these days and the N97 just doesn’t deliver.
I can forgive the processor speed and the low ram, in the real world they haven’t caused me any issues, my N97 has been reliable, hasn’t crashed, locked up and my camera lense isn’t scratched.
