E71 Apps and satnav

Hi all,

I have just perchased an e71 after being an avid iphone fan for years now and i must say i am very impressed!

The few snags i have is i cant find any decent app's for love nor money! Hopefully we can get a list going here?

Also just wondering which is the best "free" point to point satnav? Can Tomtom software be got for the e71?

Thanks in advance
Sam

Re: E71 Apps and satnav

I'm a complete novice at this but I've been looking into this for my E71.
I could be wrong about what advice I'm giving here have a check elsewhere.

You could use googlemaps or nokiamaps but you need mobile internet for those & that's not cheap for the amount of data you could use AFAIK.

There's this which I think is a one off payment.

Re: E71 Apps and satnav

If you want good SatNav software you need to pay 'm afraid.

Ndrive, GarminXT and Sygic McGuider all work well on the E71. To be honest thoguh i haven't found a lot wrong with the built in Nokia Maps app which is now up to version 3 (free upgrade from nokia website) you should get a 3mth free trial for Nokia maps with your New E71.

For other apps have a look in the Ovi store plenty in there.

My essentials are:

Seven Email (good free push email app)
Mail for Exchange (updated version)
Ovi store
Birdstep SmartConnect (Access point connection priority tool)
Sky Mobile/Remote Record
BBC iPlayer
Shazam
Dr Jukka Profile scheduler
Vlingo (advanced voice control)
Joikuspot (turns you phone into a wi-fi access point)
Mobbler (LastFM scrobbling tool)
