Google Maps on Nokia E71

Google recently updated their Google Maps application for Symbian phones and I have to say they have done a great job on it! It works better than the Ovi Maps in my opinion. You can get it here.

Pros:

• Works with or without a GPS signal. GPS signal improves the accuracy.
• More detailed maps than Ovi.
• Sync with your favourite locations saved in your Google account.

Cons:

• Need a data plan and active Network because the maps are downloaded in real-time, unlike Ovi maps where you can download the maps on your handset beforehand.
• No Navigation but gives you Driving directions.
