Google Maps, as an example, is available on nearly every mobile platform
in one fashion or another.

More significantly though, even if the bundled software isn't the same
software, you can measure the iPhone's webbrowser vs the G1's webbrowser
vs Windows Mobile's browser, sticking only with the primary built-in
browser as a lowest-common-denominator.
