I’m late in reporting this, so you probably already know that early this month Nokia announced a beta of version 3.0 of its Nokia Maps software. New features include pedestrian directions and terrain relief maps. Nokia’s maps are also available on the Web through its Ovi platform; the site does not support any Mac browsers, however, so I can’t tell you anything about them. Edward ventures a few thoughts. Lots of coverage: All About Symbian, AnyGeo, Engadget, The Economist, Mapperz.
