Ovi Maps Loader for Nokia N900 now available
Thanks our friends over at MaemoItalia.com we’ve come to know that Nokia has (finally) released a Map loader for Ovi Maps on the Nokia N900.
If you’re a frequent reader, you’d know that one of our minor complaints about GPS on the Nokia N900, was that there was no way to pre-load the Maps into the device.
Well now there is !
Using Nokia Map Loader, you can pre-load your country’s maps into your Nokia N900 using a compatible PC, and save on data transfer costs from having to manually download it on your device.
You can get Maps Loader (27Mb) for the Nokia N900 over on Nokia USA.
Keep in mind, Ovi Maps for Maemo still doesnt have Voice Guidance and a couple features that are on the Symbian version though.

Are you try it? Because for me is no functional, and on europe Nokia site i find same screen.
Classic. They have Windblows and Macintrash versions of the app… but even though the N900 runs Linux itself, there's no desktop Linux version of this map loader app.
I have only Ubuntu Linux computers, no MS Windows ones. Can I load OVI maps onto the N900 from my Ubuntu Linux PC? If so, how?
No way that I know of yet Will. So far Maps Loader only works on Windows unfortch.
It doesnt seem to be working!
