New firmware - good or bad

It seems like the new v 12.0.013 firmware works great for most of the N95 users while some users are experiencing problems. After upgrading to the latest firmware some phones seem to suffer from strange LCD behavior, unresponsive buttons and occasional lock-ups. See the two YouTube videos here and here. There's also a thread at Nokia Support Discussions.

According to the discussion at least phones with product code 0548763 seem to be in danger after upgrading to new firmware. Whether it's a hardware or firmware problem is not yet certain. If you have a phone with product code 0548763 you might want to wait for the next firmware version before upgrading. You'll find the product code of your phone printed on a sticker under the battery.
