Hi
Can anyone confirm if maps.google.com works on the N9
It is supposed to load a mobile version of a web-based google maps
for more information: http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/201...e-browser.html

This is the only thing keeping me from buying the N9, i need google maps

Thanks

Have you ever tried Nokia Maps? I feel it's a far better product actually. All you would need to do is swap your favorites on over.

Nokia maps does not have public transport information for busses. (Atleast not for where i live). Also google has more businesses and descriptions, reviews etc

Nothing to stop you loading maps.google.com on your mobile browser.

It does not load the mobile (smartphone) version, only the dumbphone version. Don't think the n9 browser allows for location sharing.

Location sharing works fine with the link from above, in native browser, Fennec and opera mobile.
