And actually in this case googling isnt enough because this work in progress has become obvious after users have bought this and reported their experiences. For example maemo guru

We paid a premium price for a premium device. How about some respect for that? Nokia, kindly realize that S60 is not the future, whether you like it or not. Linux is. So, please focus.

Nokia's treatment of the N900 / Maemo 5 really puts me off getting one.
It seems like I would be spending a large sum of money to buy one, when I could buy a nearly equally specced Android phone that provides a lot of the same features and large updates to the platform. Maemo 5 looks like something that has been pushed out unfinished and is now mostly left alone.

In my corner of the office we are 4 with this device and guess what... you have 4 very unhappy persons right now and 2 of those are considering a change.
Mind you, it is not for the sodding maps/navigation issue alone. It is the way Nokia is positioning itself against this device, showing little or no support for the platform. If they have no interest...

I am VERY unimpressed by these news and since I am still in my initial 14 day trial, I think this is going back to base to be replaced with another option from the competition.

You people make me laugh.

You've just read about this in different blogs. I would not take a blog as the most reliable source as they tend to get a bit biased (e.g. has some own agenda or speculation). Is there an official source that says that only harmattan is getting the new version? The whole thing about free maps has just been announced a few hours ago. The OVI maps for maemo is still in early stages. Be patient, perhaps it will be ready in like 30 minutes or so. Tomorrow at last. If not, I'm pissed.

Well, Nokia maps is the only Navigation service that doesn't have maps for couple of European countries including Serbia.
Damn Navteq. Before Navteq we had maps, and now even after couple of years - nothing.

Annika Pollari (Nokia): We are looking into including other platforms as well in this offer in addition to Symbian
And another interesting thing:
Streetview mode for Nokia Maps in plans for 2010
