I'm gonna write this in English for all the sophisticated Englishmen (and 'Mericans) around here, but my issue involves my own country: Holland.
I'm really looking forward to the Nokia Lumia 920 and I'm very eager to ditch my iPhone. But I'm just a little bit concerned about how good the mapping software will work on my new phone. I'm reading a lot of good things about Bing and Nokia Maps, but these things are almost always written by Americans and I'm not sure how good these maps will function here in Holland (or other countries).
For instance, sometimes when I'm cycling through my hometown and I can't find my destination, I'll quickly let my Google Maps app on my iPhone (no, I won't upgrade to iOS6) search something easy like "coffee company" and it almost always gets it right. Now I have no problem ditching Google Maps, but I'm very concerned searching for places won't be this easy when I'm using Nokia/Bing Maps because there just aren't a lot of places indexed in these maps. Are there any Dutch (or French or German or British) Windows Phone users who can tell my I'm wrong? I hope so
