GPS
This handset has the new Nokia Maps software, version 2.0. It connects finds position lightning fast, and uses the cell phone network to do so, and then when there is GPS signal (which also comes pretty fast) it locates the user precisely on the map. It is not yet known if all countries will get the proper maps, this test phone didn’t have one, so the current location was downloaded from the net.
Of course it is usable this way too, but navigation costs extra, as usual. For me it first asked some money for the maps (€69 EUR) and then it would have liked another sum for voice navigation. Lacking these two we can only search the database (anyway this is downloaded from the net too) and we can see where we are.
The design didn’t change much we can set almost every important parameter in the settings. There are now satellite and hybrid (satellite + streets) views available. Searching from the main screen works quite well, I found the streets damn fast and the maps shipped by Navteq seem much better than the horrible ones from TeleAtlas, which was last time seen in a Mio navi.
Altogether I still think (and most of my colleagues agree) that phone-based navigation is just a quick help, rather than a real GPS solution, on one hand because of the screen size and on the other hand because of the other features this is not the best way for machines to help us navigate. And furthermore this costs extra in case of Nokia.
