You have to press the blue arrow and the number AT THE SAME TIME (not one after the other)...
This works for me at least.

Ovi Maps works perfect for me.
I dont want or need voice in GPS is anoying for me someone telling me every turn you have to take in your car, who is SO DUMB to know where you have to turn ?
And i CAN write numbers too in the route, check your fingers.

Hey there, and thanks for this nice thread...
For basic functionality OVI Maps works fine here. Like "MatMat" i dont need voice for GPS navigation and thanks to fraaaaanka i now have a workaround for the bookmarks.
The OVI Maploader is not needed for N900, just download the maps and put them in your maps folder. Did this for three european countrys now.
One thing that bothers me is the search function only available if you are online. I don't have mobile internet and can't search for places when on the road. There is so much room on this device, is it possible to download the search database? that would be awsome!!!

hello
i have a huge issue with my ovi maps
everything works perfect but when it tells me to get on a freeway it does not say which way ie orientation..
for example it says get on the I-10 FWY /San Bernardino Fwy
but there is a East and West 10 fwy.. n i dont know which to take untill i go back into the map..n look at the route n see where north is..
this is very annoying... any help?

hi
How do you save places or delete places. Is it possible to sync your ovi account like you can on the n97/n95.
For me map application has been the biggest disappointment since changing from the n9x series. but love the rest.
