Nokia finally released car mode for harmattan after 7 months of waiting, but with a pricetag of 20€ here in Finland. Which I'm not ready to pay if it's as bad as the symbian version (looking at store comment section).
I would like to hear experiences from people who have bought it. I'm not going to invest 20€ for a buggy nokia software

You can try the free version without the Mirrorlink option

Edit: Sorry, seems like this one is for Symbian, I overlooked that...
Weird that there is no free version for Harmattan

yup thats for symbian...Nokia is really stupid for screwing it with such a high price tag...car mode is free on symbian and i dont remember who but one of Nokia's own dev had said on MNB.com that car mode for n9 too would be released soon...its taken them months and that too only with MirrorLink and an exorbitant price tag..

It sure takes nokia hell alot of time to develop for harmattan. Here is the post from january: http://conversations.nokia.com/2012/...-for-download/
Well it said "Nokia N9 will be added at a later date.", but I expected them to deliver it faster
Maybe there is still hope for vimeo app that they promised on conversations... Well thats not up to Nokia I think as it's not their app, but I hate when they promise something on official channels and won't deliver.

can we group together? 20 pers give 1 euro.

1 person pays for the app and with qtweak we can grab the deb from the store and share?
Just an idea... Dont know if this will work.

That would be quite illegal. 20 euros is not much if you compare to what a mirrorlink car system costs...

I believe that would be the definition of digital piracy.


Anyone, what is this mirror link and do we need it?
