You've been able to do this on the N900 since it was released. It will still only be Ovi Maps (for Maemo) 1.0, ie with none of today's goodness!

Don't waste your time downloading the maps off the nokia page. Its just an old copy of what is already on the device.

I still love my n900 and dont regret buying it but it continually seems as if Nokia overlook the n900 device and community when it does things like this. I understand it is probably difficult to support 2 different mobile operating systems, but come on at least show us a little love!

Since I don't have a beloved N900, just a beloved N810, this doesn't hit me as hard as some. But it is the straw that broke this camel's back.

I was planning to purchase the N900 after it's firmware got its first major fix. With this announcement, it is clear that Nokia views N900 users as beta testers for a future Maemo 6 product. Furthermore, it makes it much more likely that the upgrade path from Maemo 5 to Maemo 6 will be the same as the upgrade path from Maemo 4 to Maemo 5 - nonexistent.

I'm not giving up my N810 but I am reluctantly giving up on the N900 and Fremantle. :(

OK now I am actually fuming

If the below is the case, its flat out wrong - you buy the flagship device and arent even considered for an upgrade.:

Quote:
Engadget spoke to Michael Halbherr, Vice President of Social Location at Nokia, to find out why Nokia’s highest end devices can’t run Ovi Maps and he said that putting the new version on the N97 was a “software logistics issue”, and that N900 users will not be receiving the update, instead they’ll have to purchase the next device in the Maemo lineup. A Nokia employee who goes by the alias “cbidlake” confirmed in an official Nokia discussion board that Nokia N97 users will be getting the new Ovi Maps on January 28, via the built in software update client.

My Lord, SOMEONE teach Nokia how to do PR - What statement is correct? What is up with Nokia, how did they get tosuch a dominant position with their incompetence.
