I gotta agree, I've finished implementing the ovi maps with full speech using espeak (including street names thanks to jhb, again thank you!) and I cannot understand much . The turn left turn right part is understandable, but I think it can't manage the street names very well

Offline navigation is already available due to the plugin. I personally haven't looked deep into it yet and I might not get around to it for a while, however there's heaps of talented programmers here now modding ovi, so who knows what will happen




I modified jhb's python server slightly to allow for full sentences from the javascript to be sent, hence enabling speech for street names too. I've uploaded the modified html file and the python file for people to test.

All thanks goes to jhb and CormacB for doing all the hard work

Edit: Should mention its only English for now, to change the language, search for "//show manuvours" in the html file to see the speech part and change the words accordingly.
