Might mean it's not available in your location?

1. Install meaemo-location
2. Put a bookmark to http://maps.google.com/maps/m on your desktop.

You will get full screen map (with GPS location) which is much easier to navigate than the desjtop version.
This is terrible advice and yet, everyone gives it. You can't zoom out with that version of google maps mobile on the N900, so please don't offer it as a solution, until someone figures out a way.

You can Zoom, kinda. You just need to download and install something to Mod it.

Who has said so from Nokia?

.edit
Only thing that they have confirmed is that it will sometime come to Maemo xxx.

Yes coming to Maemo doesn't mean Maemo 5 it could mean Maemo 6?

I do think 3.03 will come to the n900. As we all know we have a very old version of Ovi maps and just doesn't make sense for Nokia to update unless they're going to offer the latest with voice.

Imagine the disgruntled Maemo user base if they just updated to 3.0 without voice. Maemo is part of Nokia's "bright" future and they need to give good support.

It's not an old version, it's a new version which is why it lacks functionality compared to the more mature Symbian counterpart. The version numbers of Maemo's and S60's Ovi maps aren't comparable at all.
