MyNokiaBlog weekly post round up (Ep 2) Long live Ovi Maps!
This week we reported on Steve Litchfield’s famous Phones show 100th show anniversary, feedback on the N900’s new v2.2009.51-1 firmware and a couple of video app demos showing how to upload photos/videos from the N900 and how improve its battery life. Engadget also published their long awaited N900 review, hailing the Maemo 5 browser as glorious.
But the big news this week was with Ovi.
Nokia pulled a game changer with the announcement that turn-by-turn navigation would be free on Ovi Maps. Hitler wasn’t too happy about that. (Thanks all for the tweets and blogposts on that video ^_^ I was checking out some youtube vids this afternoon and saw it on the Science and Tech most viewed)
