Version number is 30.0.011, but unfortunately this does not include the much anticipated kinetic scrolling feature or the new home screen. Those updates are most likely to be included with a later update. For me the update was not available thorugh the Nokia Software Updater program (RM-356), Therefore I had to use the OTA (Over the Air) service. OTA update is available on the phone itself;  Bring up the number pad > type *#0000# (this will bring up the firmware information page) > options >  Check for updates.  The update is around 4.5MB so watch out for the data charge, I did it over Wi-Fi using my normal internet connection. Overall there are no visible changes, but the phone seems to be faster, menus are more responsive and quicker. So I think it is a worthwhile upgrade. When I upgraded all my installed applications (even those installed on the phone memory) , contacts and SMS messages were all intact. This is somewhat strange since when I normally use the Nokia software updater program, everything is deleted.. I did not hack the phone afterwards because all the applications were left there, but I hear you can use the latest HalloOX2 to hack v30 if you want.</blockquote>
