Google is starting to add location based advertising, this could be google's way of promo'ing that function or at least that's the only reason that I can think of to do something like this. I mean google almost exclusively lives off of its advertising $$$, so that would/could be a possibility, i guess.
Location based ads are the next frontier for mobile advertising, where you can, for example, receive an ad on your cellphone when you're right at the cereal aisle or what have you. This could have a lot of potential for Google and Apple and Microsoft as well if they are able to command any market share with their upcoming push.
