It has improved on later devices.
Apparently the Harmattan device is getting the same version of Ovi Maps that Symbian^3 has ...

At least with Android, they would finally be making SOME kind of progress into the current decade. What a disappointment either way.

Nokia announces that a door hit them on the head and it finally dawned on them that they do hardware, not software, so, they will now focus on that.
Their offer will be restricted to one phone per class. N, E, and P, being the Nerd, Enterprise and Poor slob lines.
Also, they will change their name to Carrot and their phone will be dubbed uPhones, with uPhone N1 and uPhone E1 being launched this summer.
Also, there is talk of a new uPad.
Their whole OS will be missing. Since Google can answer anything, the phone will boot up to Google's page, you can handle it from there.
It's the community's job to fill in the gaps.

To ChromeOS's credit, I LOVE that Google has decided NOT to lock-up the Linux layer of the ChromeOS laptops and leaves it open for the geeky among us to splash ourselves around in the POSIX goodness! GOOD on Google for that!
