More ‘free’ maps from Nokia with Smart2Go…

Hot on the heals of Google Maps for Windows Mobile, released last week, Nokia have released today what appears to be a similar service with Smart2Go, due to launch on Saturday (Feb 10th 2007). If used with an internal or external GPS unit, the phone can use the maps provided by Smart2Go to operate as a navigation device, similar to a TomTom. Of course, this service isn’t ‘free’ and will require an ‘upgrade’ payment. However, it’s rumoured that you will be able to purchase the navigation service for short periods, for example a weekend, which may be cost effective if you only travel to unknown places occasionally.

Do you support the campaign? Should government-funded and approved agencies such as the Ordnance Survey collect data with significant indirect contributions from the UK tax-payer, but then charge users and companies for access to it?
