Hi
What maps and software should I use with the Nokia N82?
My preferences - in rank order
Only use data connection when wifi available - don't use GSM network
Load maps for most of Europe inc Romania, Norway and Russia
Find current location on map
Get directions on map - using postcode or address
Find and store points of interest
Get voice direction instructions while travelling.
I realise I will not get all of these without sending data via the
mobile network.
but - which of thse services can I get without using gsm data.
What software / maps should I use.
I do not want to pay a subscription for Nokia maps and do not want to
pay for data costs while roaming.
Any advice or additional tips would be appreciated.
Thanks ColinK
Garmin Mobile XT. All that and no data usage. If you need to download extra
maps, use your computer and transfer them to the phone. I use it in my N82
and it's extremely accurate.

just get an iphone, no charges for maps or gps.

So you get turn by turn voice navigation for free without needing to
have a data connection on the iphone? No you don't. Try paying
attention.
And there's no charge for GPS on the N82 or N95.
Go back to polishing your closed, restricted toy.

Internal GPS.
Wayfinder software included now that Nokia bought the company.
Maps stored on internal memory cards. No Sellphone carrier funny
business.
Maemo Mapper, free from the Linux hackers, requires sellphone data
connection if you want map/sat photo updates in realtime, but you can
load them onto the memory cards on wifi at home, if you like.
Sellphone service not required.
