Step 2. Copy the Ovi Maps .sisx file to your N97. And using File Manager on your mobile, open the Maps .sisx to install.

So now you have Ovi Maps running on your N97 before its supported officially. Word of caution here, this is not recommended. Memory space on your C drive after install will go down. New firmware and official support for Ovi Maps will be coming on 28th Jan.
