Re: Wayfinder maps updated!!!
 
Does it show side-road (roads adjoining route) names now?

Suppose I'll find out in a while - download of new map is v-e-r-y
s-l-o-w.

NIT Map always put my house location at top of road, not middle where it actually is. Mind you, Google maps is off too. If I do hybrid view (sat photo and map graphic combined) they are out by about 300-400 yards. Nokia N95 Maps are the same.

Some data screwed somewhere I reckon.

Yeah speaking of downloading slow. Is there any way to download it to a desktop then transfer the new maps?

I know it is obvious, one has to click the refresh button to see the NEW maps.
USA East 732 > 785 etc. all maps are larger except Singapore, remains 1 Mb ;).

Edit: mistakes. I think it just getting bigger maps, not more maps. My mistakes.

Don't know about the US East/West, but the Canada one is still the older version (it was the smaller of the 3 to download and I looked at the version.txt file in the zip package).

There is no Hawaii, México, Brazil and Malaysia in the list, so I suppose is not updated.

Those Navicore maps (including the US maps) are still from 2006.10
I'm also looking for a way to download the new maps via PC because it takes forever to DL via N810. Any ideas?

i assume that they are
if you try to download them you will see that those servers are being hammered just like on my n810- it says 2 hrs 13 min to complete 700+MB download

Maybe they are old but they are in the same server than the new ones.

Re: Wayfinder maps updated!!!
 
Can the server be accessed via FTP for downloading to a PC? If so, what is the path?
