Free Nokia GPS software
Nokia has free GPS mapping S/W available at www.smart2go.com.
Unfortunately it is only available for the new Symbian S60 Release 3 phones (e.g the Nokia N73). It is available for a few other phones and a generic Windows Mobile 5 version.
The detail data of the maps are downloaded to your phone via GPRS/3G (almost in the same way as Google Earth).
The maps and map S/W are for free. The navigation part have to be purchased. There is an option for a 3 year license for about €80.

It isn't totally free, just "free of direct user fees". Manufacturers are charged a licencing fee, which they pass on to us in the cost of the units. Also the software in each unit is the property of the US Defense Dept and cannot be modified - so we are stuck with civilian accuracy.
GLONASS was suspended for a while, so of course coverage is limited. However, with the new satellites going up, they will have good coverage and this year, civilians will have the military signal accuracy!
NAVSTAR have exactly 31 satellites in place. In fact today ALL 31 were providing navigational data.

I'm sorry Duncan gave Avnic some publicity because their price markup on Garmins is huge. It would be much cheaper to buy these units abroad.
