If you wait a little more (PR 1.2 and Harmattan alpha SDK release) you will get more announcements and future plans. I'll do my best hunting for the Ovi Maps answer.
@qgil,

Thanks for the heads up, I am now more anxious than ever for PR1.2 and Harmattan alpha SDK releases. Not just for the fixes/improvements, but exactly for the clarification of future plans for N900, just hope the news will be detailed enough for clearing all the uncertainty and not lead to further FUD, although as you said before "customers always want to know more"... so a little uncertainty will always exist since there are pessimistic people all around!!

About the Ovi Maps, I've asked about it on blog.ovi.com and your colleague @Niini from Nokia has confirmed that the responsible team is working on turn-by-turn navigation for N900. Here is the link:

I also got a similar answer by email from Nokia USA Customer Care channel. If that is true it would be good to include on the Wiki and certainly would remove a lot of FUD from customers missing navigation apps. Can you please check internally?
