  • No longitude/latitude destination.
  • No ETA.
  • No speed camera warnings.
  • Some searches still seem to go online. Haven't fully tested offline use yet.
  • No waypoints.

So as long as the N810 is going, and the Wayfinder licence hasn't expired, I'll be continuing to use it as my main GPS. I'm not convinced my next phone (an N9) will be able to replace it and may have to buy a custom GPS.
slightly off topic here, but i do still have the same fondness for my N810 and wayfinder even though my licence is now dead, which kinda irriates me, as i paid good money and it's now abandonware with wayfinder being closed.

Do you ever get the feeling that everything is going backwards though.. it sounds like the harmattan maps app is even more braindead than even N900 ovi maps, which was worse than sygic which was still worse and more unreliable than wayfinder ever was.
