Nokia Ovi Suite 2.1 Beta now Available

 

We’ve been Beta Testing the new Ovi Suite 2.1 Beta internally for a while now, but yesterday Nokia BetaLabs decided to open up the Beta to everyone, which is great news !

Why ? Well apart from Windows 7 support, the Ovi Suite is now a lot less memory/cpu & ram intensive which is always a good thing in our books.

There’s also a lot more improvements here and there. As mentioned on the post on BetaLabs :

We’ve worked with many different things for Nokia Ovi Suite 2.1, but I try to summarize here biggest new items:

  • support for syncing contacts with ovi.com, so now you can easily keep your contacts safe in ovi.com
  • support for syncing videos from device to Nokia Ovi Suite, video playback and transferring videos from Nokia Ovi Suite to device
  • updating device applications and distributing new device applications  (same feature as in devices “Software update” application)
  • Windows 7 support
  • support for syncing contacts with Mozilla Thunderbird
  • new languages (Hindi, American English and Ukrainian)
  • extended device support
  • performance improvements
  • improving overall product quality and stability, for example in sync
  • If you’re interested, you can download the Beta over at the Nokia Ovi Suite v2.1 Page on BetaLabs. Be sure to check the “Known Issues” section first though.

      I wouldnt recommend that quite yet. Pc Suite is still a lot faster/better/efficient but Ovi Suite has some nice little features and better integration with the whole Ovi-ness of it all lol. I'd say, wait till it loses it's Beta Tag atleast.
