I personally haven't been on a plane in about four years, but I know that many Nokia N82 users take business trips on weekly or monthly basis. Or maybe you have a vacation coming up and want to keep up to date with the travel details in another country. Flights, Weather, Currency, Maps, and more are all part of what makes Worldmate such an amazing application. I haven't tested out this application enough to realize it's full potential, but from what I heard its extremely useful in real life.
Here are some of the services you get...
Weathercaster
The Weathercaster service will provide you with automatic weather update notifications. You may configure and personalize the notifications that can be both visual and vocal

umm, downloaded this as it seems a good service. bit annoyed however at the lack of UK locations on offer. My home city of Nottingham is not on the list nor any cities around here, (however there are random smaller towns in the list??) Ive emailed them to see if they plan on updating cities otherwise its not much use gatting a weather forcast for a city 50 miles away? ill update if i get an answer.

Yes, I do travel a lot and find World Mate great. I have not tried the premium services but am tempted.
And dude, you need to get on a plane and go somewhere, even if its just Mexico. ;) California is great but oh boy is the world a wonderful place. :)
Thanks Mozzer for finding that bug. Let us know what they say!
Viipottaja, I know what you mean. I really need to jump on a plane somewhere. Planning on Hawaii in September!
Hi
received this morning their stock answer, to my question. "no you can not update or change their pre-defined cities list please use the nearist location" ! bit of a let down, but so be it. Just love to know how they come up with their UK locations. Choosing random mid sized towns over some cities???
Thanks

Is there any free alternative for this, without the ads?
