Virtual Earth Navigation Application for Windows 7 (beta) Available

Windows 7 continues to get good reviews in its beta form. I even heard calls for it to be released now on a podcast yesterday.

For those in geospatial come the Virtual Earth Navigation Application which takes advantage of the Windows 7 Location Platform to determine location and show it on the map.

To play with it you'll need: Beta of Windows 7 (v 7000), .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, the Virtual Earth 3D Control, and a Windows 7-compatible Location Provider (GPS).

The program manager, Daniel Kornev, of Microsoft Russia, adds a bit more in this article.
