Nokia, the world’s top cell phone maker, says it will begin offering free maps and routing to its customers in more than 150 countries, as well as users of Window Mobile devices. Nokia’s “smart2go” will allow users to focus localized search and route-finding services into mobile handsets for free. The new service uses navigation software the Finnish phone maker acquired last year from its buyout of Gate5, a German-based mapping and routing company.
