One of the main pillars of Nokia’s Windows Phone strategy is to provide exclusive apps for Lumia smartphone users. One such app is Nokia Drive, which has been launched in Windows Phone Marketplace in version 2.0.
There are several new things included in this release, including offline route planning and navigation (very cool), speed limit notifications, and advanced dashboard with a number of details and list of recent destinations. In total, Nokia Drive 2.0 covers some 100 countries across 6 continents.
We couldn’t find the app on the web version of Windows Phone Marketplace, so you’ll have to search for it from your phone. That, of course, presumes you do have a Nokia Lumia device…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
