I'd say this app is pretty well pointless and of no use to most N9 users - very limited amount of cities covered.

Did you check the page?
Simple routing information is available for plenty more locations in all continents - see http://betalabs.nokia.com/node/52654?req=true
The same app is also available for Windows Phone.

I see my city (Milan, Italy) in the aforementioned list, but every time I try to calculate a route I always get an error saying that my area is not covered...

It's on the list, but won't work on N9.
Anything we can do about it?

Maybe there is a usability problem here?
I just learned that you can go from Hamburg Hauptbahnhof (there is always one) to Lindenstrasse (another sure bet in German cities)
in a 10' walk or taking the U1 direction Grosshansdorf until Lohmühlenstrasse...
From Piazza Virgilio in Milan to Piazza Della Scala you take the Tram 1 Greco - Pza Castelli and stop in Manzoni Scala.
"Can't give you an exact schedule for this journey" is the difference ref the primary list of cities.

usability problem...?
The app also shows a (actual?) list of supported areas.
Hamburg and Milan are not on that one...

By usability problem I mean that some users are saying their cities appear in the list but they can't calculate routes. As shown in my post just above I'm able to get information from Hamburg and Milan (I haven't been there ever, that information comes from the app).
See post #22. "Covered regions" are those cities fully supported with timetables. Then there is a bunch of cities (including Hamburg and Milan) with transport information but no timetables.

I know for sure that London has very good and extensive API for its transport infrastructure, whereas Paris has not, and has sued people for using its maps and stuff in apps. So clearly, not all cities are equal, independently from Nokia.
