Do i miss something or are you paying Nokia for using ovi map?

Re: Who said Nokia did not do false advertising? look at this
 

Yes you missed it, what I am using with OVI map is routing not navigation.

Umm.. it has free navigation.. but it doesn't have turn by turn option.. and that's what _we're_ complaining about.. In the picture it doesn't say anything about Turn by turn.. So no false advertisement there..

I've heard those old legends about sea captains "navigating" with maps, maybe it's just old myths.

I would say its not false but misleading , because "free navigation" is what we indeed have, you can use N900's Ovi maps to go from one point to another but it doesnt have voice commands, lane assist (for highway driving) , POI system and pretty much any sense which route is the best in other words CRAP

Nokia did use the term 'free navigation' to refer to the turn by turn feature.

Would google claim 'free navigation forever' if their map app doesn't have any online services (turn by turn) component?
Would any app claim to provide their core (offline) functions 'free forever'?

Look at the picture above. What do you think?

common guys the n900 is now so long out and you guys are still whinung about their advertisments?
i guess in 10 years someone will still say common nokia where is the turn by turn navigation you was talking about?

I once drove from Finland to Denmark relying only on my N900 for navigation. It did a good enough job for me.

Hell yes.

People are complaining about the "reality distortion field" from Steve Jobs; why not point out that you know... there's a bit of misleading in that wondrous thing called "advertising".

Shockingly enough, people seem to forget that advertising is much like a P.T. Barnum exercise of say one thing, deliver another and have a way of making the poor sucker believe that got more than what was stated. Somehow.

Semantics be damned.
