[OSM-talk] Source of Nokia footpath maps?

[Ben Ward]

Someone sent me this link with Nokia launching some old guff about handheld
navigation on foot.

http://newsvote.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7230686.stm

Which lead me to wonder where the footpath information might be coming from,
considering all we usually see from Navteq/Teleatlas is roads and branches
of McDonalds.  As far as I know the only decent footpath mapping in the UK
(apart from the bits done in OSM ;-) is from Ordnance Survey.  What about
other countries?

Anyone have further info, or perhaps a less vague article?
