What is wrong with Google Maps, I got mine working with navigation there was some small file to download that got it working,

This is for unrooted phones, basically it installs another Google Maps, so in the end you will have two maps on the phone, but one of them has navigation.

I paid about $1300 for two delivered to my door,

bloody good phone, wipes the floor with the iphone

thats just too bloody expensive for a phone.....
wait a few month and you can get it a lot cheaper.... which is what i will do i guess...

i will be visiting the USA in May so i might buy when im over there

Whome, i was just looking on ebay and there is no such thing as $520 for a nexus one ? (maybe thats ebay prices) but where can you get one for $500 ?

Obtaining a Nexus One

How do I purchase a Nexus One from Google?

1. Sign up to one of the below listed purchase agents/shipping forwarders and note their US based address.
2. Using your existing Google account (Google accounts based in Australia do work with this method), add a second shipping address with the noted US address of the purchase agent/freight forwarder.
3. Download (free) and install it. Using Hotspot Shield, browse to and complete the purchasing procedure for a Nexus One using the Google account (with freight forwarder/purchase agent address) and a credit card.
4. During the order process specify the Australian address for billing and the US address for shipping.
5. Await the arrival of your Nexus One.

That file gets Google maps to work in Aus with voice navigation, I gave you the link for an unrooted phone, there is another one for a rooted phone as well.

From whirlpool.

Are all of the features of the Nexus One available in Australia?
While Google Maps still works on all Android phones, Google Maps Navigation isn't currently available officially in Australia, as Google do not fully own the maps they use for it. There has been rumor that Google Maps Navigation will be activated in Australia sometime around January or February, however this is just rumor at this stage.

Unofficially, Google Maps Navigation can be used with these modified packages, both on stock and rooted devices. Navigation is world wide, including Australia.

For stock devices:
For rooted devices: (more streamlined)
