New features in Nokia Map Symbian and WP

The great news is that the Windows Phone version of Nokia Maps can now synchronize with the maps.nokia.com server, so now I got my favorite locations collected with my previous Nokia phones into my Lumia. This is an important improvement; however, I am still waiting for the moment that Nokia Maps, like Nokia Drive will work off line. I would also like to see higher accuracy satellite or aerial imagery.

The Symbian version of Nokia Maps works off line, and has been improved so that the pictures you take are shown on the map, this look really great. I would like this feature in Lumia as well.

At the moment there are over 80 000 applications in the Nokia Marketplace for the Lumia family, and more are coming all the time. On App which caught my attention was the geocahing application from geocahing.com, which enables you to search for hidden geocache “treasures”. Another interesting App is FotoSynth, producing panorama images on the fly. Actually the panorama can be a sphere, with you in the center.

An App I still need: Screen Capture for Lumia Windows Phone! Another App on my list is a Battery Status application.
