Don't be silly now Lumiaman, the Lumia is just as bad when it comes to routing as ALL the other Nokias using Nokia Maps.

The application is great, but the routing algorithm has always been crap, it's something I've moaned to Nokia directly through feedback, and to Nokia Beta Labs about for years.

Sadly not many people seem to notice this issue and Nokia Maps is constantly praised for being up there with the best navigation apps, so I doubt Nokia will ever pay it much attention.

I still use my Nokia E7 with Sygic GPS for my sat nav duties, the routing is a million miles better than Nokia Maps that just picks some ridiculous routes at times. Even on my new Nokia 808 it's still just as bad as always.

Nokia Maps gets you from A to B, just don't expect the optimum route.
