just one week after the launch, there have been over 1.4 million downloads of the software

From next month all Nokia GPS-enabled smartphones will include the new free version of Ovi Maps.

if all the POIs in malaysia is inside Nokia ovi maps, i think garmin for S60 will be dead in malaysia.

as long as they do not update their POI it is useless..

besides tropicana, try searching for roads.. i nearly vomit blood..

wanted to search for SSx/xx.. but ho.. cannot find.. then SS x / xx, cannot find.. then ssx /xx also cannot.. rupania.. u can onli search for ss x/xx..

also. many roads i cannot find.. unless i switch on the 'online' search.. baru found.. cilaka betul.. if i dont have data plan habis lo my phone bill..

OVI Maps ver3.03 is available for download for older phones like my E51.

Installed this with various maps, but could not get the GPS signal from my Garmin 10X or Holux GPSlim236.
It keeps saying "waiting for GPS" ](*,)
Maybe it's because I need to update my E51 software.

Anyone has OVI Maps working in an E51?
Garmin etrex Legend C, 10x + Garmin Mobile xt.
Holux 236, M1000 + Garmin Que & Mapking.
Holux 62Pro + Papago X2.

i'm using n97... there's many way u can update ur phone, either using the OVI suite or directly using ur phone thru SW Update (application menu).. as for my case, my latest version would be V 12.0.026
