The Nokia Maps team is conducting research on the Drive car navigation feature within Nokia Maps 2.0. They are looking for London, Berlin and Madrid based users (both novice and expert) to take part in their research. This is an opportunity to help shape the car navigation functionality in the next version of Nokia Maps. More details are available on the Beta Labs blog.

How annoying is that. Im nowhere near London, and theres no comments box to say that. Im sure I could be extremely helpful towards improving Maps, but I just dont have the chance.
Nice to see them improving it though.
Thanks Rafe for spreading the word!!
About restricting locations, we can't have these face-to-face workshops everywhere, as it would be too expensive and too time-consuming (not to speak of not getting enough participants in smaller locations). Therefore we had to choose some big cities, this time London, Berlin and Madrid. Sorry that you couldn't participate...
(hint for London people: join there - you might meet of your favorite writers in mobile industry)
Oh I understand, its just that I have been wanting to give feedback (and ideas) for Maps for a long time. Its my location I blame it on, Im just annoyed I couldnt be there.
@bartmanekul - this may or may not help...didnt actually follow process to see what questions there were.. but check this out...

Thanks, looked at that some time ago. It seems to be for specific things, such as routing mistakes.
I suspect (hope) most of my ideas will be addressed in V3 of Maps.
