I was going to ask around here to see who was satisfied with the Wayfinder software. I was looking at their prices and it's ~$110 for a 1 year subscription which is comparable to many other services (Nokia Maps for US is similar). For an extra $10 ($120) you get a 36 month subscription. That doesn't seem to be a bad deal, you get to keep updating the maps as they arrive for free. Now, I'd hate to purchase 3 years worth of service to have Wayfinder not supported on the next tablet and would also LOVE to see Nokia Maps ported to the next IT platform. Especially with the upcoming Maps on Ovi service that will allow you to sync online locations and routing to your mobile device.
