As written before by napoogle: extra testing and extra devel.
Note that these repositories contain unstable software that might create

 Like other people already told you the current version of Ovi Nokia
 Maps for the N900 is then version 1.0
 This means that some features are not implemented yet
 
 As car navigation software for N900 I suggest Navit
 Official Page - http://www.navit-project.org/
 Maemo version - http://maemo.org/packages/view/navit/
 
 I have no idea if the current state you can use the vector data of Ovi Maps
 but I'm sure you can use the vector data from OpenStreetMap
 
 Since you ask maps of Japan, I think that on OpenStreetMap this area
 is well covered.
 
 See here
 http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=35.6755lon=139.77408zoom=15layers=B000FTF
 
 Navit offers some features that you need like routing support and
 speech support.
 The software calculate everything alone, without contact external services.
 Read the documentation on the wiki for good configurations and details.

Re: ovi maps : problems

2010-02-21 Thread Johan Helsingius
Alessio,

 Could you suggest other software to install that has these
fetaures (1)
 and (2)?

Sygic is talking about a coming version of their
voice-guided navigation for N900, but originally it
was supposed to be available by the end of 2009, and
it still hasn't been released.

 I thought N900 was one of the top products of Nokia
 also for these kind of services..

As the Symbian phones sell in much higher volumes,
it seems the free navigation app for Symbian had
much higher priority - unfortunately. I agree it
sends a strange message about the N900.

Making the navigation free for Symbian was not much more than flipping
the price bit. N900 navigation app doesn't have turn-by-turn
navigation at all, so there is nothing to make free.

Fair point Ville, BUT it does seem abit cruel of Nokia/Maemo/whoever's  
job it is to develop the Ovi Maps client for the N900 to not release a  
client without the basic functions of a proper GPS navigation client  
like Ovi Maps.


I have used Ovi Maps for years on my E61, and E71, and have happily  
paid for the turn-by-turn nav, for at least 2 years.


I would happily pay for it on the N900 also, but so far, it doesn't  
seem to be forth coming.


I don't care about when/why/whatever it comes to the N900, I just want  
it to happen.


thanks,
bernard

 zoom but the search of an address doesn't work

this is not a bug, it's a missing feature. Ovi Maps is not like
TomTom, it cannot search for something without being connected

 (2)
 the voice directions don't seem to work and i don't even see a menu to set
 one voice or the other

this feature simply doesn't exist in Ovi Maps for N900

 (3) the Japan map has very little detail

really no idea... never had the need to use Japan maps...
