Last weekend we went to a a friends house and I had my wife drive while I did the navigation using Ovi Maps. I am on Rogers Prepaid (poor me!), and no data access save for WiFi.

I could get a decent GPS lock, but for some reason Ovi Maps would have "bursts" where it would ask me to select an internet connection several times in a row. After that, it would be happy for some time and then start again. That made it quite unusable for the navigation!

I did download all the Canada and USA maps before hand, and the Location widget was not active so I have no idea what was trying to download what from where. I only know that whatever it was really ruined the experience.
