Nokia Map Loader for Mac
by Volker Weber
With Nokia MapLoader for Mac, you can sideload maps to your phone directly from your Mac. This way, you can save a lot on your data transfer costs - especially if you are planning a trip abroad. Nokia MapLoader allows you to download map data for whole countries or areas, so that you don’t need to use data connection on the road.

Nice to see Nokia finally offering this - will be much handier for Mac users than having to mess around under Windows emulation, which required WinXP or higher because the Windows software uses .Net V3.0.
What would be even nicer would be to see Nokia move to providing completely multi-platform tools (i.e. support older versions on Windows and Linux too). I don't understand why some manufacturers shoot themselves in the foot by using stuff like the .Net framework.

Typo: that should have been "older versions of Windows and Linus"
