If you’re heading out of the country but don’t know much about your destination, now Nokia lets download a Lonely Planet guide to take with you on your mobile device on your laptop through Nokia Maps.
Nokia Maps uses vector maps from the company’s recent $8.1 billion acquisition, Navteq, as well as Teleatlas, and offers maps for over 200 countries. The Lonely Planet guides, which cost $13.99 per download, cover over 100 destinations, the company says.
Stephen Palmer, CEO, Lonely Planet Publications said:
"This is a genuinely transformational deal, which makes Lonely Planet content readily available regardless of time or place. It will help all those questions which travelers frequently have on the road such as ‘What should I explore today’ or ‘where should I go for dinner tonight?’ Together with Nokia we will help more travelers connect profoundly with their world, every day."
