    Am I wrong in thinking that Nokia Satnav works without data connection?

    It can. Depends on how you set it up.

    Sorry to hijack the thread but what happens when you use Ovi maps overseas as a Sat Nav?

    If you have your UK SIM in the phone, how much data would it need in terms of cost (say, per hour)

    Thanks


    Check your network but £8 a MB is not uncommon for the USA/Canada...

    Total cost depends how far you go , how much you zoom in / out and need more mapping. Hard to give a cost per hour.
