Nokia and NavTeq

Nokia's purchase of Navteq has been widely reported (see this, for example). I think you might be interested in this analysis from TechCrunch ... as you think about the value chain in information services provision, you might consider what other strategic investments may be in the offing.

nokia buying NavTeq (the most importatn map provider for googlemaps) was a good transaction, given that Tomtom is in the process of buying Tele-Atlas, the second most important map provider for googlemap, I don't think nokia is going to offer free maps on their cellulars, some return of investment must have.
