Rich, 23 Apr 2010is this actually completly free of charge from now on and how does it compare with ovi maps as... moreimho, the combination of hardware, screen size and detail of information on Google, makes the Desire the clear choice ahead of the N97.

I've used this on my HTC Desire. 1 word; amazing! This sat nav beats the crap out of my current Garmin sat nav. Route detail is my favourite highlight, it will say everything you can see on a sign relating to your journey. My favourite bit is when you reach your destination, the screen will automatically change to Google Street view so that you know your at the correct destination.

Anonymous, 21 Apr 2010Come on Google, open this app for Symbian as well!!!Ovi Maps?
By the way, all Google apps are closed source, so no one can port it. The only open part of Android is the Linux kernel.

If Symbian users want it then someone will need to get the source code and create an app for it. Android and Googles apps amy be open source but why would they spend their time and effort creating a version for a platform they couldn't care less about.

Can anyone explain how the geographic limitation of the app works?
I bought a Milestone in the UK but do not live there myself. A friend is going to ship the phone to me. Is the fact that I got it in the UK sufficient to have the new feature working, or do I need to do something to enable it? Maybe ask the friend to boot the phone at least once in the UK before mailing it to me?
Thanks.

Perhaps if you set up where you wanted to go while connected to wifi it will store all of the information for that journey. Then you could turn off data and complete your trip with out needing the constant connection? Something to test maybe?
Also, try not to forget that this is a beta and not the finished article.
