Nokia Maps 2 Beta

[Jonathan Mosen]

Simon, new Nokia maps for NZ, complete with voice guidance, were release
last week. They work really well for what they do.

yeah I've heard wayfinder is good, but it doesn't work for us down here in
new zealand. hence the reason I was asking jonathon about the nokia maps of
NZ.

 if they are workable then they might be worth looking into.

Hi

Nokia Maps  have guite good database of POIs. For simple queries like just
looking POIs around or querying the name of current street Maps can do very
well. On  actual navigation it is not as accessible as Wayfinder
(Navigator/Access).
