Mates, how can I use the off-line GPS in Satio? Either with Google or Nokia maps? I tried it but it didn't work! The Google maps requiers a data connection!
See my photos taken with the C902, Satio or E72 in here!

Google maps downloads maps whenever it needs them. There is a small cache, but most of the times, it always downloads the maps. The advantage is that you are always guaranteed to have fresh maps but the drawback is that it's expensive unless you have a flatrate data subscription and it may take time and it requires network access. AFAIK there is no way to store those maps locally. Instead, you will have to install some kind of 3rd party program, like Garmin, tomtom, etc on your phone.

Not hacked Satio
Sygic cost only 60 Euro for Europe maps, works great and support Satio.

Ndrive You need (Python S60 v2.0.0 you have to sign it) Satio isenīt supported by Ndrive, but it works great, I used it since october. Google it, and find it on another symbian forum (Youtube have howto video)

Hacked Satio HelloOx2
You can use Nokia maps (hacked version. Nokia.Ovi.Maps.v3.01.4401.s60v5.SymbianOS9.4.Unsigned-CNSTeam.sis),
and with (NokiaMaploaderSetup_ENU.exe) you can download maps to your Satio using your PC.

Ndrive You need (Python S60 v2.0.0 you have to sign it) Google it

Sygic cost only 60 Euro for Europe maps, works great and support Satio.

No, for hacked Satio, you can use all the latest versions of Nokia Maps (3.03, 3.04). I discovered a way and I'll let you know how if there's enough requests for it.
