I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

You don't need an internet connection for the new ovi maps, can be stored locally.

Yes, you used to have to buy the license to use the nav feature after the trial period ran out. I get unlimited net with my contract so it's a bonus.

That's pretty cool. Checked the store (on my phone now) and it says you need to update phone software before downloading the new Maps. Thought i had the latest update already oh well.
