I will work on a version with more error handling so it is easier to find problems.
i followed all the steps the way it is. i have all the wav files. i get no error actually. it just doesnt play any sound. i have the power kernel actually. is that a problem?

I'm using finnish UI and finnish voice navigation.
It works quite well. There is problem when there are several things to say. Then the crossing is passed when the voice navigation has said all the words.
By the way the automatic language selection works for me without replacing the EN-GB row.
Thanks to CormacB

I'm happy the language selection works for someone 
Yes, I've noticed there is a problem with lagginess. This is partially to do with the lagginess of ovi maps itself. I find I need to overlock to 1ghz for it to keep up. With even more logic in javascript for the voice logic it struggles.
I have a couple of improvements to look at. One is in the way a play the sounds: I create a new audio element for each sound each time it is played and then remove it. It might be possible to precreate the elements and use the play method, though microb's audio support seems a bit buggy.
Another possible improvement is to "predict" the position a bit in advance, but this has a lot of potential for error.

Thanks CormacB
Im not getting any error message regarding config.xml
Map, gps works excellent and POI too.
Cant figure out why still no voice navigation.

Well, it seems to me, that Nokia has not included the voice guided navigation in Ovi Maps not just to be despiteful, but for a reason - combination of N900+Maemo is not enough powerfull to allow problemless running it whilst symbian is just a much less ressource hungry op. sustem...

I tested voice guided navigation in real life today but it work very badly. I used the latest version of index.html with finnish voice.
A few times I got a voice guidance but in an uncorrect place. The guidance also repeated only partly. In some turns there was no guidance at all.

I got an even odder result. Was using the version earlier that mixed espeak for the street names and used the wavs for the normal guidance. I could hear all the espeak stuff, but it was clearly missing chunks where it was supposed to be saying the other things. The odd part was that it was delayed the right amount of time to say the things it was supposed to... it just didn't say anything. The python server was running... with the proper path and all that. I just don't get why it's not doing what its supposed to. :P
Any thoughts?

Keep up your good work
It's good to have voice guided navigation but for me the offline search seems even more important...
