Bing has added a open street maps layer, and I wouldn't be surprised if it is in the next iteration of the Nokia 3d maps ( http://maps3d.svc.nokia.com/webgl/index.html ) which does not currently have street names or local listings. My quest

But the point is... does the line even exist? Why should a line that does not produce optimal results exist? Wouldn't you be able to come up with a better articulated answer to a question if you see the responses of all your peers first? Th
