I'm not sure what other restrictions there could be. Fleet management will be restricted. Server and internet solutions were already barred. What's left now is the core purpose of MapPoint - visualizing points and business data on a map. I can't image MS will let any of its vendors touch that.

I think the better question is whether MS is just accepting this Navtech-required change until they can replace Navtech with an alternative vendor, or whether they are conceding the fleet market for the long term. My bet is that they'll just move the ISVs that want to do fleet management to MapPoint .NET for now, and then figure out how to re-enable fleet management with the desktop product at some later date.
