N70 supports ogg? Good to know. I've written Nokia about lack of ogg
support, you know. I'm rather vocal in that regard.
Not natively last time I checked, there is an OSS Symbian app to do this;
<http://symbianoggplay.sourceforge.net/> which is supposed to run pretty
well on the N70 (not having one I can't try).
Ogg/Vorbis support is becoming more widespread among standalone
players, but phones are still lagging behind if you don't want a brick.
Yeah, the operative word in that sentence was "can" :P
