The Nokia N86 finally gets Free Navigation on Ovi Maps

 

All I can say is, about Freakkin time.

Thanks to AAS, we’ve come to know that the Nokia N86 has finally gotten free navigation on Ovi Maps. Officially.

To get it, all you have to do is start up your SW Update application and let it check for an update. The Ovi Maps Free Navigation version should be listed there (unless it’s just not come to your region for some weird reason). The Nokia website though, still doesnt list an official version for the N86 yet, but looks that’ll change soon, eh ?

More info, over on AllaboutSymbian.

I hate how Nokia’s been completely ignoring the N86 ever since it was launched. The N97 launched at the same time as the N86, which resulted in it being pushed way WAY back in the shadows. Well, atleast we finally have the free navigation version of Ovi Maps, eh ?

    Unfortunately, i had been known since free ovi maps v3.03 released. I my self use siscontent to ensure that N86 was alluding to as a compatible device when i opened siscontent, looked im lucky , N86 has been target installation device wihout officially mentioned , nice info bro.

    When will OVI Maps be free for Nokia N85, similar model to N86?
