Ovi Maps is hell of a lot better than anything Google has managed to cook together, so WP using Ovi Maps is a net gain for both Nokia and MS, but mostly for Nokia.

Nokia and MS cannot be understood without understanding the concept of ecosystem.

Google earns money with ADS
the more places their ads show, the more money they make...

always have been, always will be...
