The Nokia 5800 Express Music was Nokia’s first major consumer targeted phone to sport a full touchscreen. Sporting Symbians latest OS S60 Version 5, which is the same as the Nokia N97, the phone has become a retail dream and selling like hot cakes globally with it’s “Comes With Music” campaign, which saw handsets shipped with a few music tracks on them.
They have reworked the device and replaced the “Comes With Music” edition with a “Navigation” edition. Basically packaging a lifetime voice navigation license with the Nokia Maps and changing wallpapers and themes, the Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition is set to hit stores in the 3rd quarter of this year at about $410.

@Bertus – You need to upgrade the firmware.
Simply download and install Ovi Suite.
plug the phone into the PC via the USB cable and allow Ovi to pick up the device.
On the top menu bar, select Tools > Update.
Allow Ovi to find the relevant updates for Ovi, Maps and the phones firmware.
I highly recommend that you do regular back ups of the phone, which is made VERY easy by Ovi. Updating the firmware should not be a scary experience so don’t let it be intimidating.
Good luck and let me know how it goes, or if you need any other help.
