Early in 2010, Nokia announced that they would offer free turn-by-turn voice navigation for all its GPS-enabled smartphones no matter where in the world you are.
yes it is a free service. if your using Nokia Maps for example you can esily check your position (Remeber that the signal will not come green until you set the RIGHT date!), but if you using the mobile for navigating with car (Drive Mode in Nokia) then you will have to pay for it, usually Nokia mobile come with a free license (about 3 months) is you have already used that, then you have to pay per month or year (arroung 60-70) riyals ... good luck Khaled Shawky (Egypt)

The Nokia GPS module pretty much equals the Garmin in terms of navigation effectiveness. Nokia's screens are smaller so that is negative when just wanting to make a quick glance, but the Nokia's maps are a bit more detailed.

Yes, Nokia is a China based company. Therefore, Nokia GPS systems are made in China. However, they may have manufacturing locations elsewhere as well.
No The iphone does not have conventional GPS. However it does use cell signal to approximate location. This service is free as long as you have the iphone data package.

The 5530 does not appear to have an integrated gps chip. This means to use the gps function, you will have to purchase an external bluetooth gps receiver such as the Nokia LD-4w or other alternatives you will find on sites such as expansys.com, play.com or even eBay.
Most cellular phone providers have GPS apps for navigation. These apps come at a cost that can be avoided with the Nokia N97. This device enables users to access Nokia's Ovi Maps, an app that provides users with GPS and certain downloadable maps for free. Enter "#0000#" on your keypad to see if you have the latest software. If not, run the Nokia Software Updater first. Then from the main menu and choose "Applications." Next, select "SW Update" and scroll down the list until you reach Ovi Maps. Select options and update to install this free app on your N97.
Nokia offers several different gps modules to support their mobiles: the LD-1W wireless, LD-3W wireless, and LD-4W bluetooth. You can compare the differences by looking at the descriptions of the 3 products on the Nokia website: http://europe.nokia.com/search?GO.y=0&GO.x=0&qt=nokia+gps+module
