Sounds great, but Nokia has a lot of work to do before Here is a competitive navigation offering. This is what Here Drive showed me yesterday. Telling me that my route is blocked but not offering me an alternative makes it pointless to have an always connected navigation system. It underlies Here's heritage as an offline standalone service back in the dinosaur Navteq days. Even Bing maps in WP7 used to consider traffic when getting directions. Nokia says that the next release of Drive will have traffic re-routing, but until then, WP's navigation is 3rd rate (as in behind what Apple and Google offer). And yes Sly, this is something that should be fixed before bothering with a silly notification shade.
