There isn't a standard map control for Windows Mobile. You first need to find a service and design a control of your own. Among others, you can use Google Maps and Yahoo Maps.

Yahoo Maps have a REST API. This means that in the simplest solution, you could use a WebBrowser control and point the URL to the map image.
