Nokia says “You spoke, we listened”. And now, Nokia offers owners of their two very popular business handsets – Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 – “free walk and drive navigation” in the form of the latest version of Ovi Maps.
This great and absolutely free feature has been available on Nokia N72, Nokia N97 mini, and Nokia X6 phones since January, but as the process of “back porting” the Ovi Maps application to the “existing devices” of E71 and E66 was quite difficult, it took Nokia this long to provide the feature. However, users of Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 will not be able enjoy the full functionality of the Ovi Suite, and will go without premium content, such as Guide Michelin and Lonely Planet, that other (see the full list of compatible phones) users enjoy. This is because the E71 and E66 phones run on the slightly dated S60 3.1 (3rd Edition Feature Pack 1) platform, compared to the other phones that run on more recent platforms.
