It's not "that important", but it's still useful.

GPS is not all that important if you got a good map with some planning done, it's merely useful at times.

BTW, N900 doesn't even have Garmin Mobile XT or TomTom. Now that IS a deal breaker for me. I am waiting for a good review of maemo mapper on n900, doesn't look promising right now.
