Nokia E71 Map application

Hi, I currently have a Nokia E71 with the Nokia maps application installed and Nokia are charging a fortune for the maps software. Does any one have any alternatives that they can suggest, as I really don't want to have to pay a annual fee to use the gps maps. Its quite expensive and has comes as a bit of a shock more than anything.

Your feedback and suggestions would be absolutely great in this matter. If I find any alternatives I will be sure to let you all know.

Thanks again for your time and effort thus far.

GPS software for Nokia E71

I suggest software Garmin Mobile XT for Symbian S60 3rd Edition software version 5.00.50

And for instaling maps, use Garmin MapSource.

Don't know if you have found this out already, but anyways;
Nokia (OVI) maps and voice guidance with street names are free now, have been like that for a while (almost a year?). Just make sure you update your Nokia Maps through the OVI store or other means.

I really like the OVI maps because it just get it done, so you should at least give it a try, unless Garmin XT mentioned above is good enough for your purposes.

I agree, the maps and voice files are free to down load on Ovi. The phone uses the internet to find locations though so make sure you bear this in mind.

I only bought a NavMan a few weeks back and I cannot believe how good the Nokia Sat Nav is. It even has speed cameras on it. Ill give it a few more weeks and if it is as good as it looks Im gonna sell my Navman.
