As someone who has decided to purchase the n900 instead of the Droid, what really bugs me is that Google Maps Navigation for the Droid is one of the
coolest features
, while
navigation on the N900 is one of its worst features
.
The GPS on my N810 is the most disappointing part of the entire device. It never works well for me. To hear that the N900 doesn't have a best-in-class GPS is the worst news for me.
How about a bunch of us N900 users who need best-in-class navigation get together and put up a really significant bounty for solving this? I'll make the first commitment to putting up a bounty.
Can any developer give some feedback on what it would take to make this happen? How much end-user interest is required? How effective will a bounty be? How long will it take? Can we realistically make this happen?
