Report says Google Maps Navigation Soon Available For Offline Use

One of the essential things that keep me glued to my Nokia N8 is Nokia maps for navigation and the possibility of downloading maps of whole countries for offline navigation. This is vitally important for me as I often travel to other countries and roaming charges are highly prohibitive for online mapping solutions such as Google maps. Over time, Google has added features to download mapping data but for navigation, that's not quite the same. But recently, there's been another report (link in German) that Google will soon release an offline component to Google Maps Navigation. Very good, I can't wait!

  1. Woopee!! In India the network coverage was better than I expected, but then in the deeper Himalayas my maps disappeared. 🙁
