Apparently its T-Mobile's fault, in the UK. Yes there is a v20
firmware, but it isn't available for T-Mobile registered N95s in the
UK.

T-Mobile have been contacted and asked when it will be available, but
they seem to be extremely slow in comparison to other networks, and
claim that the delay is because they have to conduct extensive
compatibility tests. I believe this is b******s, and what they are
really checking for is that the new firmware won't relinquish any
control over any revenue streams, like unintentionally opening up VOIP
access.

I'll just have to be patient and wait.
