Google maps however is very friendly with its search function. It knows what the user is looking for and results show up in order of closest distance which is very precise. I seriously have to use google.com just to find the street address/number of whatever I'm looking for because 7/10 nokia maps is off by so much and it ends up being a nuisance than anything helpful.

Only thing i would use Nokia maps for is just the drive app with me putting the exact address instead of searching for it first using nokia maps.
That's sad, I hope they have plans to drastically improve search.
Although I fear it's one area they'll never be as good at, as Google.
