if there is one thing that many in the S60 world complain about then it is the signing that has to be done...

Its almost undo able for private persons that just want to make a nice app and share it with the rest of the world.

I love Ovi Maps, but I'd like to see some competition. Google is too lite, and Mapper isn't so great from what i saw.
That might become difficult for TomTom ...
On android most people have Google Navi 4 free.
TomTom is available on WinMo, but like for Symbian (and all other OS) some hacks exist. Don't understand their argumentation.

Anyhow, there is OVI, and there is OSM with some nice and free apps.

Re: Tom tom -- n900
 
I hope there is another solution to the disaster called Ovi maps. Is the GPS really that bad in the phone? Because, if it is, the N900 is useless when it comes to maps/nav apps.

Here in the US, (Phoenix, AZ) the software/maps are SO out of date. That is if you can even get a GPS lock after 5 minutes.

Google maps would be ideal. Is it an absolute no go with Google?
