Apple acquires web mapping firm Poly9, probably has something up its sleeve

According to a report in The Sun as well as an independent confirmation on our end, Apple has picked up a small Canadian firm by the name of Poly9. As of now, every last employee has been relocated to California, with the couple who declined left to find other work in the Great White North. Poly9's official website is also blanked out, but in the past, the company has been credited with developing loads of web-based mapping programs  as well as APIs for a handful of monolithic clients like Microsoft, Yahoo!, NORAD and MSNBC.
