Nokia Maps / Ovi Maps now Totally Free

As I posted on my past blog, I compared Nokia Maps against the Route66 GPS application. And one of the disadvantages of the Nokia Maps (now called Ovi Maps on newer models) is that you have to pay for navigation and voice navigation services.

Months ago, Nokia announced that the they will no longer charge you for navigation / voice navigation. Thanks Nokia.

So if your handset is capable of GPS navigation, install now!

Good luck.
