When I try to right click on France, in mapcreator, it's not covered yet.

Well how about not having any maps at all for a country? I spent a month in Pakistan (home of Nokia!) and had to use CloudGPS to navigate as nokia had no local maps.

Since when was Pakistan the home of Nokia?

I think he meant in terms of popularity compared to many western countries.
Either that or he was being sarcastic/cynical....

Pakistan should be the home of Nokia. In the east anyway - heck is Nokia even popular in Finland like it use to be?

I've been to a few countries in the east and Nokia is not as big/popular as it is in Pakistan. Almost everyone has at least two handsets - one a dumb phone with a flash light on its top (electricity load shedding is very common) and one a smart phone (N series) for serious use. I must have seen tens of posters advertising N9, and almost every phone store i visited was a Nokia specialist. This sort of Nokia love is hard to find in 2011 when Samsung/HTC is eating away at Nokia's eastern dominance.

So not really the home of Nokia but it might as well be!

If you ask the editor of Nokia Gadgets (a native) he'd probably say "Hell no".
Just based on some of the stories he's written recently explaining the shift/s.
