company’s specific technical explanation: “The mobile Web
version of Google
Maps is optimized for WebKit browsers such
as Chrome and Safari. However, since
Internet Explorer is not
a WebKit browser, Windows Phone devices are not able
to access
Google Maps for the mobile Web." [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Maybe its just that 1.2% market share isn't worth a complete rewrite just to be
non-standards compliant?
This has nothing to do with Maps, and everything to do with Google's long
publicized push for broader usage of open standards on the web, and M$ even
longer push to destroy any "standard" that doen't originate in
Redmond.
It worked for M$ when they were a dominate monopoly with 95% market share, but
mobile has broken that monopoly, the sheeple aren't as easy to herd nowadays,
and M$ is the diseased mutant way out on the fringe.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
