Hey
Someone posted a Nokia deal but it got pulled. The deal looked like Nokia phones all get free world wide maps with navigation. Anyone know if that's right ?
I assume nokia needs to compete with android and iPhone so offers Nokia navigation street maps for free?
Thing is I was going to sell me Nokia N95, but if I can use it as a portable GPS without needing to use interent for maps then it be great to keep and use for travelling. At the moment if I go travelling and need GPS I take android phone but need to buy SIM card locally to feed map app with internet data.
….Much sweeter if can download country maps to my Nokia and store on phone permanently.
That's right, I have used gps navigation for nokia in a few different countries now. All you need is to download the maps to your phone by ovi suite. Some of them are pretty big, Australia has 500mb of data for its map and continental USA is in the gigabytes. All offline. Although data helps a lot with positioning
