GPS, Ovi
Nokia Maps 2.0 is the navigation software and although we have seen the same thing on 6210 Navigator for example, let’s see the most important things in a nutshell: Navteq and TeleAtlas maps with a highly varying coverage in this region (although there are some surprises), 2D/3D modes (the latter being only a tilted map), map/satellite/hybrid views. On such a large screen this whole GPS thing would have a meaning, but.
But if we want to plan a route besides searching for an address and we want voice navigation then we have to pay extra, although 3 months of free navigation is included in the price of the phone. There is a map pre-installed on the phone so one can navigate for a time without internet connection, but once and a while we should let the software to use the net and plan routes with the most recent data. There are a million times better solutions for car navigation, but N96 is ideal for pedestrian use or for looking for POIs.
Ovi has a dedicated manual. All I knew about it until now is that it’s an online music store, which is true, but Nokia didn’t make a joke of it: everything is connected to Ovi. Nokia Maps, DVB-H, video sharing, music downloads and N-Gage are all Ovi services. So all multimedia-related features that cost extra: this is Ovi. One of the “extras” we get with Ovi is a code for Tetris, which – wow! – gives us a full version to download.
