PC Suite V6.6 available

Not seen this mentioned anywhere but I've just noticed that a new version of PC Suite is available on the Nokia website: V6.6.16

The only obvious change I can see after installing it is a changed look to the 'File Manager' interface.

It also allows you to send SMS messages (this wasn't possible for Symbian phones in previous versions), and to view your messaging folders.

Text messages sent using PC Suite appear in the sent items folder on the phone, which is handy.

There is a MAJOR change for me (XPproSP2): the bluetooth connection between PC and Communicator is now reliable. Since SP2 installation, with previous versions of PCsuite the connection was dropped every minute, as SP2 apparently doesn't allow to use non-�icro$oft BT drivers. PCsuite 6.6.16 apparently fixes the problem.

Running XPproSP2 here with Nokia PC Suite 6.6.16 and it won't work with non-microshaft BT drivers?

At least here, SP2 replaced Acer BT drivers with �$oft ones, not allowing me to restore the original ones. Until I installed PCsuite 6.6.16 the BT connection between PC and Communicator was erratic. Now it's OK.
