It's okay, just a misunderstanding.

The maps version in N900 does not support Navigation. You cannot buy navigation license for N900.

I wish Texrat were more careful with his words. A few negative comments from him regarding the N900's usefulness as an automotive GPS solution, and Nokia abandons the whole idea.

Others may have wanted the option to at least try the N900 for navigation, Texrat. Sheesh!

I can't believe that. At all. Nokia has a top-notch navigation program, a top-notch device... and they cannot put the former into the latter?
While they're actively advertising the n900 as an ovi maps-enabled computer?
Nonsense. Maybe they're looking which way it is not cracked too easily (c'mon - like on the symbian platform, you know, or like for navicore/wayfinder), but putting there a crippled version seems a dumb move to me. Maybe navigation is going to come as an update.

Otherwise, Rockerduck-like, I promise I'll eat my hat!

N900 has a special Ovi Maps version made for N900 as Nokia has explained. Navigation is not supported in that version and nowhere Nokia says N900 supports Navigation. They only say that routing is supported which is not the same as navigation.

Indeed, there's no mention of voice navigation on maemo.nokia.com.
Quim, can you enlighten this please? I don't want to eat my hat. Please...

EDIT: I hope that the three-bars icon above the "-" "+" bar on the right side of this screen is for voice guidance volume...

The information is from Finnish Nokia Online Store sales person. I'm sorry but it is in Finnish:

I just saw this thread and thought would clarify the maps issue.
