I was very surprised to find found out yesterday how old the map data on my N8 really is. I was driving through the eastern extension of the George Bush Turnpike (SH190) which according to NTTA opened to traffic in December 2011 but still did not show on my map! I have downloaded the latest Texas map just a few days ago.
How long does it take until the phone map data is updated after a major road addition like that? It has taken more than a year now... even Navteq web site shows the SH190 extension correctly.
App version v3.09 12wk09 b05
MW OpenGL MN
Map version 0.2.47.103
Release date 07.12.2012

I trust that you have filed a map error with Navteq?http://mapreporter.navteq.com/
If I've helped in any way, a click upon the white kudos star would always be appreciated.

Yes I did report to Navteq but no response so far. Not sure if this is more of a Nokia issue or Navteq issue since the map that can be browsed on Navteq web site is up to date, just the Symbian version on my N8 is not.

Probably can expect further divergence between Symbian and Windows Phone 8 mapping now as time goes by with Israel being just one example where data available on the latter if application is running "Online".
