About Ovi Maps, the web app: http://maps.ovi.com
it is kind of slow... what do you think?
Also, the web app does not work on any other OS and browser combination then Windows/IE... how about Maemo/MicroB?

Or could there have been more to show (perhaps some text labels) and it was 'shopped and edited before he published his blog?
What are those 4 bars on the right lower corner ...
For being more fingertouch-centric, if it is an eq or vu meter or similar, it would seem it is either a minimized app/gadget that when touched will bring up the full app or it's simply meant to overlay and be viewed as is. (captain obvious award?)

But here's a quote from nintendo:
"Nintendo Co Ltd. reported a 66 percent fall in quarterly operating profit on slowing demand for its Wii videogame console and a stronger yen, and stuck to its full-year forecast for a decline of 12 percent," Nathan Layne reports for Reuters.
"Nintendo has weathered the economic downturn relatively well thanks to the popularity of the Wii and its DS handheld player, which have catapulted it to the top of the global game market ahead of Sony Corp. and Microsoft Corp.," Layne reports. "But Nintendo expects its profit to fall for the first time in four years in the current year to March 2010 as the Wii's momentum slows and the company faces increased competition in the handheld business from Apple Inc's iPhone."

What about ovi store for Maemo? When will it be available?
