Nokia Removes Native VoIP from N Series Phones

Starting with the N78 and N96, Nokia has removed the pre-installed voice over IP client normally found on N Series phones. The client allows users to make phone calls through the Internet, rather than via traditional cellular networks. Nokia confirmed that the SIP stack on the phones will still support VoIP services, but users will have to add their own VoIP clients to N Series devices running S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2 in the future. The VoIP client will remain on Nokia's business-focused E Series devices.
