    Indian Guides for Nokia Maps v2.0.4503
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As most of you all might know by now, Nokia and Lonely Planet have entered into a collaboration where Lonely Planet's guides will be offered within Nokia's Maps application.

    The Delhi guide in Nokia Maps has the following index :

    thanks nicesoni_ash



    On selecting a category,such as "Eating", you're taken to a list of places under it. In this case, restaurants. It also tells you how far away from each place, you are. I am still here in Manipal, so it told me I was at least 1900kms away from everything in Delhi :

    a136b528c889481f8f17db3770611159

    The "Night" section takes you to a list of places to hang around in the evening :

    12058cc394a84e2aac27cd4d00e9d31b

    The "Sleeping" section takes you to the Hotels :
    b839f58357fe4f56ae8239936fe56504


    "General" takes you to a list of nearby places that you might find important :

    086c4b1678e1427d80f135a073ba390a

    The "Shop" section takes you to a list of nearby market places :

    1dce45821e9649c5a48fd439503b3c2a

    The "See" section takes you to the Sightseeing tourist places in the region :

    c4d3243ccab440b6a656a1701bade373
    3612f9604ebe4223b34514cf85822b5b



    Now, say you're in the "Eating" section, you can select a restaurant, and when you open it, will be presented with the following options :

    2c271fb7fc5f4745bd39e7bb3ec3e0ca

    If you select "Show on Map", it will directly take you to where the restaurant is, within the Nokia Maps application :
    bf533b8c8a384f3981ca75c0f5a25fbe



    If you select "Show Details" :

    a8b4d297aefc4321922c36a07ef659fd

    It shows you a small brief description of the place :

    f50845354ed3459fbe1a842e7ef958a4

    You can also select "Drive to" or "walk to" and the application will begin to guide you to the restaurant or place that you've selected.

    The Nokia maps for Delhi are already pretty darn good. Especially when you compare it to the non-existent maps for Udupi or Manipal or lesser known cities. All the Lonely Planet points of interest (POI) are clearly marked with the blue on white Lonely Planet insignia, and appear in addition to the Nokia Maps POIs :

    290f388aa1c44c79833d54c85161c32c

    You can zoom in and pan around :
    fbb5da6004e7421d86edd922a7261589


    Even scroll around the map to see the other places :

    331eff9985284de99857a135ee74b6af

    (Note : If you want Nokia Maps not to display places like Hotels, etc , you can disable the category within the Nokia Maps application by going to Options-->Tools-->Settings-->Map-->Categories and check mark and uncheck whichever categories you want. )

    In terms of number of places, the Nokia Maps Lonely planet guide has most of the places that are in the book, although not nearly as organized as the book. I'd say they skipped out on about 3 or 4 in each category though, but all the major places are there.

    For instance, which traveler in India, does not know Cafe Coffee Day (Indian version of Starbucks) :



    It even has a description, like all the items in the guide :

    # Please make sure you have the Indian Maps data installed in your phone before putting these files.., and then just extract the whole contents to your Cities folder.

    besides Delhi, only Mumbai guide is available, though Lonely Planet has almost all cities map of India, but till now only two cities maps are available though I guess when you open the Indian Guide, there are lots of Info like Agra, Mathura and so on... but not like as much specific like this one for Delhi.
