Sounds like Ovi is using bitmap map images and not vector maps. In that case it can position in the image with a lat/lon but is unaware of what's on the map. Therefore finding a Route or the a particular address aren't possible. Routes are probably defined in GPX files which are XML. With Maemo Mapper these GPX files could be saved on the tablet for future use. This may also be true for Ovi.
