All we can do, is hope for an improvement at this point really. Also, the Lonely Planet Nokia Maps guides are only available for a handful of places atm.

Delhi may be covered pretty well, but Agra doesn't seem to exist according to Nokia. I tried to locate the Taj Mahal in Nokia Maps 2.0 and 3.0 beta ( http://symbianism.blogspot.com/2009/02/nokia-maps-30-beta-updated-feature-pack.html ), and both failed miserably. The entire city of Agra (population close to 2 million) is no more than two crossing main roads on Nokia Maps. Google Maps had no trouble finding the Taj Mahal. Simply searching for "Taj Mahal" will do the job. It's on their map and on their satellite image. If you try that in Nokia Maps, you'll find a long list of indian restaurants named Taj Mahal all over the planet, but you won't find the architectural masterpiece in Agra.

For the Taj Mahal trip, I would definitely recommend taking a taxi with you early in the morning (think 6 am) and go on to Agra. It takes about a few hours (3-4 depending on the traffic) and it closes early in the evening. Some of the best lighting is during the day. Other places you could visit in delhi are some we have noted here :http://blog.ixigo.com/2008/09/ixigos-must-roam-places-in-new-delhi.html Wow that’s comprehensive!
