Hi,
firs of all sorry for my bad english (I'm Italian :)).

Since a few days, I've a Nokia N78, and I wanted to install Garmin maps... how can I do?
I would like Europe coverage and Italian voice.

Second question... if I can do all it... how to install all the software? I'm very new to Nokia world and I'm not able to install any software into Nokia smartphones... :(

Install Garmin Mobile XT Free Basemap: http://www8.garmin.com/software/GarminMobileXTFreeBasemap_4xxxx.exe
Install Garmin Mobile XT Support Files: http://www8.garmin.com/software/GarminMobileXTSupportFiles_4xxxx.exe
Install Garmin Mobile XT for Symbian S60 3rd Edition: http://www8.garmin.com/software/GarminMobileXTforSymbianS603rdEdition_50020.exe
Exercute GarminMobileXT.sis on your phone. It is located in the root of your phone or SD-card.
Start the application.
Select settings for text language, voice, unit and for Garmin Online.
Exit the application.
Open the file called GarminDevice.xml. It is located in the Garmin folder.
Look for <Id>XXXXXXXXXX</Id>
Use the keygenerator (http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showpost.php?p=3838604&postcount=4) to generate an unlock key for the applivation, and save the key in a file called SW.UNL (not SW.UNL.txt) using Notepad. The file should be saved in the Garmin folder.
Download version 6.13.7 of MapSource: http://www8.garmin.com/software/MapSource_6137.exe (Don't use the latest version - it is not compatible with all the maps).
Install it.
Download the map you want from http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=632595&page=12
Install the map using the file called something with XXXXXX_ENU.msi - Not the Setup.exe - This will install the map only.
Launch MapSource and unlock the map, use a key generator which you can find here: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showpost.php?p=3838604&postcount=4
Enter your GPS's ID number and mapid in the key generator, and you have the unlock-code.
In Mapsource, click Utilities > Manage Map Products.
Select the Unlock Regions tab, and click Add.
Enter your 25-character unlock code and then a comment, if desired. Click OK.
For more info look in the user guide for Mapsource: http://www8.garmin.com/manuals/MapSource_MapSourceUsersGuide.pdf
Then you transfer the part of the map (e.g. Spain) you would like to your GPS.
If you would like to have more maps, e.g. Garmin City Navigator Europe NT 2009 and Garmin City Navigator North America NT 2009 you can combine the maps and transfer them to you GPS.
Try it.....

Mike
