Advertisements Here’s a test of some Satellite Navigation solutions for the Nokia N8 as demonstrated in a little car trip (hopefully the N8 not be plagued by inconsistent quality of GPS connectivity – it does now support A-GPS, Satellite and WiFi positioning for improved location awareness and stability) Audio seems a little harsh on the […]
Thanks to N#O#R#U#L#E#S for the heads up at mynokiablog.com/tips. Here’s a look at Ovi Maps 3.06 with the Nokia N8. Ovi Maps has truly graduated as a powerful and convincing service from Nokia and NAVTEQ. Everything works a little bit nicer, slightly fewer button presses, with now pinch and zoom and smooth map scrolling as […]
In all the Nokia N8 demoes we’ve seen thus far, Ovi Maps has only been shown to zoom with the zoom bar. Multitouch is available on the N8 but it was not yet working for Ovi Maps (though it was mentioned to be coming soon) In this 25 minute video (Skip to 24:05) you’ll see […]
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fGksNKetB0] Nokia conversations are running an Accent Competition to celebrate their new “Own Voice” App to record your own voice packs for Ovi Maps Voice/Turn by Turn Navigation. Check out this cool video above. At first, the lady (Amy Walker) came across as pretty crazy (wasn’t expecting such contrast of accent, thought she was going […]
I didn’t get a chance to blog about this or even attend the final NokiaNav meetup when NokiaNav was happening as I was in the middle of some really important exams. (Shame as there was a huge collection of Nokia folk at the meetup 🙁 ) It was so hard to avoid as you’ve got […]
You might have read this already, but in case you haven’t this is a must to check out. Possibly one of Nokia’s best home grown apps. “Own Voice” – an ambiguous name, lets you user your OWN voice for Ovi Maps turn by turn directions! Brilliant! And of course, it is free from the OVI […]
The second of today’s postings of Ovi Maps adverts. (Check out “Lost…Really Lost“) Nokia’s really ramping it up to let everyone know you have FREE sat nav with Nokia Smartphones. I like the phrase at the end…”you have reached your destination….you have reached your destination”. It’s a very global affair. Nokia – getting you where […]
Sometimes, being lost can get you into lots of trouble. If you had Ovi Maps, you’d avoid all that wouldn’t you? This poor guy only had a paper map, and no one really knows how to use them anymore. He gets lost, but is ‘found’ by this Welsh woman. He’s trapped. And been trapped for […]
Here’s a Pretty cool video of Ovi Maps Projection in London. But it isn’t your usual projection as you get to be in what’s being projected, and it interacts with Ovi related items like arrows or pin bubbles. It’s in part to celebrate Nokia giving away Ovi Maps for free FOREVER on all new Nokia […]
