Fans of the Nokia N9 might be feeling left out due to Nokia's focus on Windows Phone, but worry not boys and girls; an update for the device has been making the rounds from as early as last week. Nokia N9 software update PR1.3, is the latest software update for a handset that will never see a successor, well, that is if Nokia's Windows Phone push doesn't bear any fruit worth eating. No new features here, only improvements to performance and applications, which is good enough for most.

The main improvements include:

• Mail for Exchange (MfE) now supports client certificates.
• Localisation improvements and support for new error codes with the Facebook app.
• Twitter API changes that reflect the back end infrastructure of Twitter.

As well as these main updates, there are also some general updates.

• AccuWeather widget weather update fixed.
• VoIP calls now work via Skype/Gtalk when in flight mode and connected to WLAN.

• Changing the "week starts on" date within the calendar error now fixed.

As you can see, nothing to get excited about, but for the improvements to apps and performance, we recommend users of the N9 to get down and dirty and give this update a shot.

If you are interested in the new Nokia N9 software update, head over to Settings > applications > Manage applications > Updates> Refresh. From there, you should see the following screenshots:

Enjoy the new update, die-hard Nokia N9 users; this one might be the last you will ever see from Nokia for that awesome, yet dead handset in your hands. Consider switching to Windows Phone 8 yet?
