    Nokia exclusive apps

    For those of you with the phone already, how do the Nokia apps perform? I'm curious about the Maps and the Nokia ESPN app specifically.

    I tried out the ESPN app on my GF's 800 last night. It's a pretty decent app, but I was disappointed at parts of it. There's some great video accessible right in the app, but when I clicked on a box score for an NBA game, it essentially just opened a version of the ESPN mobile site. Not a deal breaker, but I was hoping for better actual app integration.

    Nokia Drive is the only other app that I played around with, but I did that in her apartment, so I really didn't get a chance to test out the actual navigation/directions. It looked nice though

    I forgot that the ESPN app was Nokia specific. That kind of sucks, actually, everyone should have access to a major app like ESPN

    I know some other phones were getting access to Nokia Maps, but I'm not sure if ESPN will be crossing over or not.

    @sabonis, how easy was it to access some less popular sports (in America)? I'm a big fan of soccer and follow the Premiere League and the MLS pretty closely. Were there any Live tile implementations with favorite teams and whatnot?

    I know about Nokia Maps coming to other phones, but I've yet to see ESPN ported over. As for MLS, there was an official map released. Source is here: Major League Soccer Releases Official Windows Phone App - Mobility Digest - Mobility Digest
