Yesterday over in the Keynote, OPK announced that the Nokia N97 would be a receiving a firmware update to a version 2 (aka v20) firmware, that would bring several improvements to the device such as Kinetic Scrolling everywhere, speed & Bug fixes, more new Widgets, and a couple more fun things.

Luckily Mark over at TheNokiaBlog, is at Nokia World, and was able to get a video showing off whats new in the upcoming v20.0.005 (Number might change before release) Firmware of the Nokia N97 :

As you can see there are plenty of improvements, and the Kinetic Scrolling looks like welcome change. The v20 firmware is scheduled for October so we’ll have to wait till then. But it definitely looks like it might breathe new life into the N97.
