Answer 1

It's probably unlikely that there will be more updates for the N96 - 30.033 was over a year ago, and the phone has been out of product for some time.
To answer your points:
1 & 2 - I have been using the N96 since September 2008, mine is a generic Finnish/Swedish model and it has never had this issue.
3 - Captured photos are not deleted from the phone. The photo gallery doesn't reflect folders, all of the 'albums' are based on a database. If that database corrupts, the albums appear empty but your photos are NOT deleted - they are simply no longer flagged as captured - they will still appear in 'all photos', and are still in the images file under the correct month in File Manager.
4 - The N96 was introduced at a time when Nokia didn't put SIP and VOIP clients in phones because they were in league with the people behind Gzmo. Sorry, but as I said it has been a long time since there has been an update and I doubt one will be added now.
5 - All S60 phones can be victim to reboots from time to time, just as Windows crashes from time to time. Personally, I have found that Maps 3.0 causes reboots a fair bit. One issue is a lack of phone memory on this model, occasional reformats to rest back to original condition can help, as does being careful not to store things unnecessarily in phone memory when mass ùeùpry or card is an option.
6 - This repeats from point 4.
7 - Correct, but hardly an issue as radio is for listening to rather than looking at - most users will have the phone in a pocket or holder as they walk down the street listening to the radio.
