Google Maps Is Back on Windows Phone  After Google Maps
disappeared from Windows Phone, Google announced it was working
hard to solve the problem. Now Maps is back, so WinPho users can
find their way with Google once more.  Verge reports that Google
has re-enabled the web version of its maps for WinPho users. For
a time, a redirect was put in place, which pushed users to a
search page when they tried to visit Maps. First Google claimed
that it'd removed access because the mobile app was optimized
for WebKit browsers like Chrome and Safari, but not Internet
Explorer. Turned out that wasn't true. So Google backtracked and
said it was the result of a performance test. Since, it's been
"working on a solution".  Anyway, the net result is that the
shit storm's over and Google Maps is once again available on
Windows Phone. [The Verge]
