Nokia have bought NAVTEQ about 2-3 years ago and offer OVI maps (their own version) for free to most of their smartphones. I have been using the OVI maps on my Nokia 5800 it has been pretty useful. as others have pointed out, N900 has a superior platform. however, Nokia is really lagging in their OS itself. they have just released a new Symbian 3 OS with N8 and Maemo OS with N900 and now they are working with Intel to develop another OS called MeeGo albeit, it is based on Maemo. I wish Nokia will get their act right and stick with one OS. there hardware has been always good if not great.

sorry mate! Cricket will work with only people from sub-continent. its funny how geographical association doesn't necessarily give away ethnicity... using Russell Peters observation 'when ever people say Asians, they automatically think chinese' and when people say Indian, they get confused between Native American and South-Asian ( well thats a whole different story!!!). -- South Asian (you already guessed it, right?)
