Why no free NokiaMaps for Nokia 800 ? Because Nokia maps business model is to sell routing information and turn by turn instructions downloaded from the cellular network while you are in your car. And the N800 does not have wifi access while you are in your car...
There's no such think as a free lunch (or map, in that case...).

It would be pretty nice I guess but as someone else said just use Maemomapper if you want a free map application. A smart2go port linux port might be a good idea still.
BTW you can pre-load maps from a PC using the Maploader tool with smart2go so its not tied to GPRS/Edge/3g downloads.

There is nothing available today to allow remote access / virtual terminal to a Symbian phone, so it can't be done.
I'm not sure what are you trying to achieve - maybe if you tell us what you want, we can suggest the best way of achieving it...

Kindly asking only, why free NokiaMaps are not avaliable for Nokia 770/800.
Frankly speaking a one second lasting Google query for "virtual terminal" in Symbian gives a number of webpages
Linux : Screen Command

Because Nokia hasn't produced it - no one knows why (except Nokia), but it's simply not available.
Linux screen does nothing close to what you are asking for, and the rest are examples of client running on the Symbian platform, not servers allowing hosts on a Nokia Tablet to access the phone itself.
Yes, it might be possible, but no one has produced what you are asking for.

why not to port Navicore to Debian/ N770/800
