But then I wondered, and all the other features they are just announcing for free in Ovi Maps 3.0 like traffic information, guides and so on?? First I tough Ovi Maps for Maemo would catch up with Ovi Maps 3.0 for S60 in order to unify the product versions, with just minor adjustments for each platform. But if Nokia plans to keep the Maemo version as a separate product I am sure we won't have all the features from Symbian before the next Maemo device.
Simple - make it in Qt so it will work on Maem 5 and upcoming Maemo 6 as well as the new Symbian versions. I don't see why it wouldn't be worth doing as it will cover so many devices.

PS. I'm on page 7 of 17 so if anyone else has said that before me, sorry!
