According to Wikipedia, the 8930 supports clock frequencies only up to 1.2GHz, so unlikely that jolla will use it.
I think this is much less of an issue nowadays with the quality openstreetmaps has reached. I'm using almost exclusively osmAnd on android instead of google maps, because of offline capabilities & more detailed maps in my area. Unless one needs things like real-time traffic info or Streetview, it's IMHO equal or superior to the mapping applications from the big players. Also, modRana and Marble are very decent on maemo.
Even if it's the msm8960 with adreno 225 it still will be a nice step up over the N9. So performance should be noticeably better.

Snapdragon is good news, since potentially it will be possible to use Freedreno GPU driver here without a need for libhybris.
But these by far aren't full specs. What about the modem and supported networks?

You can now see my reply again:
In fact, Qualcomm has a MSM8930 MDP, it blocked Clock Speed in 1.4GHz as well.
MSM8930's frist release was a SoC in Snapdragon S4 Plus series (end of 2012),
after Snapdragon 2013 new series announced,
Qualcomm put it in to the Snapdragon 400 series.

I hope we see much more about maps soon. It's one of those things that will be hard to implement for a company like Jolla.

Google Maps on Android sucks nowadays. No way to control what maps are cached and routing + searching does not work offline.
(I love ModRana in N900 and there is a (alpha/beta) Android port also, but it didn't really work in SGS3 and left map and other files scattered all around filesystem.)

Code:
/sdcard/modrana/maps
BTW, this is currently the latest modRana package for Android:
http://www.modrana.org/packages/andr...ana_0.43.1.apk
BTW, the current modRana Android GUI is based on Qt4@QtQuick 1 & QtComponents, like the Harmattan GUI.
I've started work on a Qt5/QtQuick 2.0 based GUI, which is targeted mainly on Sailfish, but it should work quite nicely on other Qt5 platforms, including Android.

I remembered wrong, it wasn't filesystem where it left files all around, but in the Gallery system, all the map tiles were seen as images and it messed the Gallery up. (There may be a way to exclude the modrana directories to be seen by system as places for image files, but didn't then search instructions for it. There were the similar problems in the N900 way back also.)
I did install Qt frameworks also and Modrana kind of worked, but was unusable GUI-wise then. Some things in Modrana are better then in NavFree so if it eventually will work good in Android, I am sure many Android-users would use it.
And back to the topic, Modrana deserves to be in the Sailfish device also, so thanks for working on it.
