Congratulations, nice piece of video. The unit looks very "neat" (makes the 910 look like a brick!) and I look forward to a full review and complete list of specs.

Absolutely right, it does make the Go series look like bricks!
However, without hands free 'phone connectivity, I wonder how successful the 330 will be? When I saw the initial review I thought 'great, being a Nokia, it'll have no problem with bluetooth' but there's no way I could go back to using a bluetooth headset instead of my Go when I'm in the car, perhaps 331, 340 or 430 will redress the omission?? |

IT looks very similar to the Nokia 770 Interenet Tablet which has just had a satnav upgrade by a third party (in cahoots with Nokia).
In your review could you let us know about the sound quality, is it as loud as TomTom Go ? Thx Matt |

I have to agree that the Nokia is a good looking unit, but strangely I prefer the "brick" appearance of the TT Go's and Im afraid that gooseneck mount is downright ugly and spoils the effect!
Congrats to the YourNAV team on an excellent video presentation. -------------------- TTGo 700

Sorery guys, this post will probably be removed. Nokia 330 is a crap !!!! It's the most buggy GPS device I ever seen. First of all, it exposes USB identier 0xFFFF with name 'DEBUG PLEASE CHANGE FOR RELEASE' (attach it to the pc, and look at driver description of the device in device manager). Only for that if I was Nokia CEO I would brutally kill the manager who approwed this product with my hands. It also identified it self 'Nokia phone' to the PC. Nokia really lost a lot of image in my eyes (actually it never had too much trust anyway) Whole device feels like they assembled it from completely different parts in the garage (I know they bough some company that does those GPS, so they definately have that garage standing somewhere). It does not want to remember the settings, it does not play videos behalve crappy M$ WMV (and you also have to find that WMV that is playble) and for such amount of money, they evben do not provide 220V charger !!!!! Common, it costs $5 for the company, but not, that probably will sell it for EUR40 in shops. I think it's a robbery. If someone buys this, he is either completely stupid or the salesman is the best from all Of couse probably you will find this post too one-sided but believe, me there is not much that can imress me. But Nokia did it this time. We'll provide normal video converter app for it so those who managed to buy it at least can pay extra eur30-40 and get at least videos working fine Spelling 3/10 Grammar 1/10 Bigotry 9/10 Homicidal tendencies 10/10 Colin -------------------- GO 720
