Following yesterday’s post from Stephen Fenech’s time with a Ferrari, his Two Blogs Talking Tech buddy Trevor reports back from Your Tech Life on his #NokiaNav experience…

.. Like Stephen, Trevor was also incredibly surprised to discover a brand new #NokiaNav Porsche 911 Turbo Convertible waiting for him, as well as being rather relieved that he didn't have to get the train back home! A C7 and the latest in-car Nokia tech was also waiting for him, with Trevor using his new toys to fulfill a variety of challenges during the week - from the simple task of "enjoying" it, to some more elaborate ones later on.

Stephen at Tech Guide has just finished a week with a brand new Ferrari F430 as part of his #NokiaNav challenge in Australia.

Naturally, he was pretty ecstatic about the whole thing and, as well as having a good old fashioned chat about it on the Two Blogs Talking Tech podcast, has put pen to paper to recount the experience in a little more detail... Beginning his #NokiaNav journey on foot with nothing but a new Nokia C7 and Ovi Maps, Stephen's day quickly took an unexpected turn when stumbling across a 'bright red Ferrari F430 parked by the side of the road'.

As you may have seen TomH mention already, the high-octane #NokiaNav event has been taking place in Sydney, Australia over the past few days.

Adrian at My Nokia E7 has noticed it all going down (under), suggesting that it might just be one of the best Nokia events he has seen so far... Unfortunately for Adrian, he's a little too far away from it all in the city of Perth, but even so, it's not stopped his imagination. In a post that's aptly entitled 'You'll Wish You Never Saw This Video', Adrian recounts the moment he first heard about #NokiaNav. [...]

Imagine WOMWorld/Nokia delivered you a shiny sports car with a picnic hamper and asked:

‘What’s the most interesting place you can navigate to for a picnic?’

This was the latest creative challenge faced by the #NokiaNav guys.

Along with the hamper, they also received a locked black box (because it simply wouldn’t be #NokiaNav without some kind of mysterious package!). Picture of the day came from @stobbsc at Nomads Nirvana: He says: ‘Let me warn you though if you try to have to many picnics you might go a little crazy as the two images below seem show.’ Quite.... Head on over. Meanwhile, @nechbi at My Pocket OS decided to use his treats for the greater good taking his friend out on a spontaneous birthday picnic. [...]

@nechbi at My Pocket OS has posted after being set challenge two of #NokiaNav.

He woke up with the instructions: 'Your destination for this challenge has been uploaded to the #NokiaNav Ovi Maps account. You’ll need to go there and ask for an envelope at the desk. They’ll know what you mean. To get yourself ready for the challenge you’ll need Syncronise your Ovi Maps Favourites Select "Black Box Challenge". Good luck.' He then posted this video: That Maserati is a bit too cool, isn't it? More #NokiaNav action on the way. [...]
