I don't seem to be experienced enough to post links here yet, but if you go to nseries.com, pick N95 from the drop down list at the top, then click on the Technical Specifications link near the bottom - that should give you all you need to know.

Yea that was a bit vague. I was talking about installation files. As i have been trying to install .sis files but it dont seem to work and i thought that was supported. I can install java applications so i know thats one file extension that is supported i was just wondering about others for programs like TT6 and other symbian based programs.

I am going to have a look at that website see if that helps.

Cheers

SIS files are supported as are the newer SISX files. You just need to make sure that the software is compatible with S60 3rd Edition. SIS files for earlier versions of S60 will not install (or will install and then not run).

Yea i just tried installing another piece of software with .sis and it worked so the other ones must be the older type. i dont really know what version they are because i was just given a whole load of symbian and java software from a mate i just thought the phone would be backwords compatable and still run the older software.

Does anyone know a website where i can download free software and games for the N95 (also that take up the full screen because most of the ones i install only take up a a tiny section, sort of defeats the object of having a large screen lol)
