- Same for Skype.

- Same for Ovi Maps although the owner is Nokia and the maps are available to download, so the legal aspect looks simpler.


Those are four simple Yes/No questions.
No, they are not. There is a technical feasibility and performance to be seen and there is a very grey area around certifications, EULAs, R&D experimentation and fair use.

This situation would be simpler if there would be proprietary software downloadable and installable under their own EULA acceptance, just like Adobe or Skype do for PCs.
