Posted by Norman John in 3rd Party Application, 6110 Navigator, 6210 Navigator, 6220 Classic, N-Series, N95, N95 8GB, N96, Nokia, S60, Symbian
Today I’ve taken a look at the new Maps version. Version 2.0 is offering a lot improvements in term of user interface, speed and many more. Other than changing the style, Nokia also has implemented satellite view ala Google Earth.
Overview
Nokia Maps is taking maps and navigation experiences to the next level and introducing Walk – pedestrian navigation, in addition to Drive – world class car navigation, multimedia city guides, satellite maps and other innovative features. With free maps of more than 150 countries, over 15 million points-of-interest, the world is in your pocket. Don’t get lost or choose to get lost in the right places to explore, and let Nokia Maps show you the way.
Nokia Maps 2.0 Beta comes with compatible Nokia Map Loader, also available for download from this site.
Maps 2.0 is still in Beta and therefore not supported by Nokia care.

Where is the Map loader?
Nokia Map Loader only works on Windows, needs .net framework, and if you add a new map the map loader deletes all your existing maps so you’ll have to download them all over again.
But you don’t need Nokia Map Loader. http://nokiamaps.moo.no links to all maps on Nokia’s smart2go server. Works with any browser on any operating system, including Mac and Linux. No need to install anything on your computer, so it works when you’re in a hotel, school, at work, or in an internet cafe.
If your phone talks WiFi or 3G you can add and update maps from your phone’s web browser without even touching a computer.
