Have you used it? if so are you able to search all locations and directions to the places you want to go without having to connect to the internet?
Its a 3rd party app that has no link with OVI MAPS and does not make the gps work any better at all for obvious reason, is good for making sure the internal GPS chip being used in the N900 at least works but dont work on the actuall GPS programme anything like GPSjinnie ha ha.
Oh our N900 is in a sad old state right now lol still never mind because good things are about to happen.
If you want to try the 3rd party app here is the link for the download ok

try it and see for yourself as its not a bad app.
