Try out the all new Ovi Maps this Easter
Apparently it’s Easter soon. My wife just told me. Who knew? Easter is one of those periods that has simply arrived in front of me, rather than been anticipated, throughout my working life. Thankfully Wikipedia explains that Easter is officially based around Sunday April 4th. At Easter, of course, quite a few people start traveling. [...]
Nokia, want to evolve Ovi Maps faster? The whole Garmin Connect team are for hire
If you’d like to hire the team that built and created Garmin Connect, the world’s largest repository of recorded GPS activities, then today is your lucky day. Garmin decided to shut down operations at its San Francisco office just over a month ago — and thus move all Garmin Connect management and development back to [...]
Video: Part 3 of the Anssi Vanjoki interview: “The generic mobile interface will be a map”
After we’d dealt with the N97 issue in Part 1 and then the way ahead of Symbian and MeeGo in Part 2, Rafe asked Nokia’s EVP for Markets, Anssi Vanjoki, to speculate on the future of mobile 3-4 years out. Most executives when faced with this kind of question will either shrivel up and look [...]
Vodafone 360: The Dire Maps App
This morning I thought it was time to get stuck into mobile oblivion once again and check out Vodafone 360. As I walked down to the tube I recognised the now familiar ‘oh shit’ feeling that greets all users of the Samsung H1 Vodafone 360 device: That is, the knowledge that someone might recognise you [...]
MIR Show – Ben and Rafe row over Nokia Maps
Toward the end of the interview we filmed with Rafe Blandford of All About Symbian last night, there was brief discussion about Nokia Maps. Rafe is obviously a rather big fan of it. Ben Smith — normally the quiet, implaccable and relaxed thinking man on the team (“come on Tim!”) went nuts. Nuts in the [...]

Google Maps Mobile Streetview … near-Nirvana experience
I’ve been playing around with Google Maps Mobile Streetview. Just brilliant. In Portugal this weekend, I flicked out my E90 (running an older version, alas) and watched my taxi journey from airport to hotel. There’s something rather reassuring to see your little blue dot heading along unfamiliar streets and highways on the way to your [...]
Earthscape for iPhone goes Free for a Limited Time
I’m sure you’ll agree with me over the fact that Google Earth is a remarkable software. The ability to virtually find and browse to any point on the earth has been implemented exceptionally well. However, being an iPhone user, I particularly miss Google Earth on the phone, more so for the sheer simplicity that the [...]
Google Maps for Mobile Now Puts you on the Street
The team behind Google Maps for Mobile have just announced a new version of the popular mobile application and brings along a couple of features that certainly add the boost to the application, which arguably the application lacked. Most of our readers will be familiar with Street View, Google’s Magic technology that sends out little [...]
