Nokia has done more than any other mobile manufacturer to put personal navigation on the map (if you'll excuse the pun). The company recognised several years ago that mobile phones were better suited for GPS assisted navigation when used out of the car than the dedicated dashboard-mounted sat-nav devices that have traditionally dominated the market.
As a result, the manufacturer put in place a strategy to fit the bulk of its new smartphones with a built-in GPS receiver and also launched a new Navigator range of phones that specialises in satellite-assisted navigation and location-based services.
Peculiarly, Nokia's new flagship navigation device is not the 6120 Navigator phone (which we'll be reviewing next month), but the new 6220 Classic which we're reviewing here and now.
It's worth pointing out that we're no strangers to the navigation experience on a Nokia phone as we've been using the GPS-enabled E71 every day for the past couple of months.
