    Microsoft releases new Virtual Earth

    Posted on Thursday, June 29 2006 @ 21:43:53 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck


    Microsoft has released a new version of Virtual Earth. Here's a look at the new features in version 1.64:
    1. Driving directions drawn directly on the map.

    2. Pushpins! Now when you search for an address, business, or contact, the map won't just be centered on the place, there will be a nice labeled pushpin there.

    3. GPS improvements. GPS should work much smoother now. I fixed some bugs, and added an options dialog directly in the app so you don't need to deal with any other GPS control panel (which was missing on Smartphone anyway). You will still need to set up a Bluetooth COM port for Bluetooth GPSes, however.
