Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

Actually, the search function on the N900 Maps seems to work better to me than it ever did on my S60 Maps.. But yeah, the routing function is pretty useless (unless I've managed to miss a turn by turn instruction at least).

So, likely I too will get Sygic! :)

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

I'd imagine that part of the cost is needed to cover the licensing fee for the maps. So I don't think the price mentioned is outrageous, but also wish that Nokia would be able to include a killer gps/mapping app like the Google Droid.

The fact that they are working with Sygic to bring this to market as part of their web launch indicates to me that we shouldn't expect a better Nokia offering anytime soon.

Dear sir,

We are finalizing testing of Maemo version, it should be available until end of January, from both Ovi store and our eshop. For more information please join our mailing list at www.sygic.com section help.

Thank you for contacting support and your interest in our products!

Best regards,

What do they mean "until the end of January"? Does this mean they will no longer offer it after Jan?

Re: Sygic announces world-wide turn-by-turn navigation for Maemo

Android platform is offering free navigation.
Nokia should offer the same if they want to compete.
One solution is to just buy Sygic (the whole company or just the app)
and offer it for free.
Another option is to improve Ovi Maps.

Nexus becomes cheaper than N900 considering the free navigation.

Don't sweat it...some people are just not good at coping with, nor tolerating, others from different cultures.
