Its not going to happen from what we can see...If Symbian has no updates planned there is fat hope for Harmattan...
I think Nokia Drive will be renamed to Here Drivefrom what I understand...Not very sure though...
I think I read somewhere (not even sure if it's in my imagination
) that drive as an app willbe exclusive to Lumia only and of course all other things will be also better.But if you change the word order from "Here drive" to "Drive Here" does not sound so stupid

If it was Nokia Here it would be understandable but removing Nokia from the equation IMO doesn't help Nokia to get mind-share among consumers of all OSes...

Isn't this why they got rid of "OVI"? And now they have Here... Learn from your history Nokia!

wasn't it the plan that m$ offers NOKIA services for navigation and all that sort of things?
if so, it might simply be an other coward move from farthole to dismantle the brand and make it a "m$ division"
