Certainly in the UK there's a lot more 'Google-sourced' data appearing on
the maps, often seemingly scraped from the web.
http://blog.telemapics.com/?p=344 is an amusing take on it all.

I think it's generally assumed that this is a precursor to Google dumping
TeleAtlas data completely and replacing it with their own data, largely
sourced from StreetView cars - just as has happened in the States.
