Modest apparently missed it's date for inclusion... maybe it will be ready by the time of the next (minor) firmware update.

Heres a good one.
The N810 comes with GPS and mapping software. Does Nokia expect users to pay more $$$ to unlock part of the mapping softwares functionality?

re maps, the maps come in full (us & canada or uk) depending on where you purchase the N810. it will be available too on the next firmware update for the N800 for free. The N810 even comes with a car mount in the box.
what's not free though is voice directions. it will be like $100+ to activate it.

it's a shame but at least they know about the problem and they will do something about it.
E.g. video performance, h.264 support, 3d hardware driver, etc.
