None of this is true.

Google doesn't own their own POI database they license it from others and to date Apple hasn't approached these companies. So it isn't about the POI database.

It's more about the fact that Google was withholding data for Turn by Turn and 3D.

Zagat and Frommer's aren't comprehensive, but surely they're at least important POI databases?
