The vehicle/person's path is displayed as a line on either Google Earth or Google Maps with details of the speed at each point along the route. This allows you to follow the progress of a live vehicle, watching the points appear on the map as the vehicle moves. Alternatively you can view the previously recorded path that a vehicle or person moved along."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/westfall-20060118-3d.JPG" /><br /><br />Well, this certainly looks like a good way when exploring a new town to figure out how you missed your destination over and over again (And see yourself literally travelling in circles). Might also be useful if a friend is travelling somewhere foreign to them, but familiar to you - I can imagine some fairly interesting cell phone conversations revolving around "You just missed the turn!", etc.. I'll have to give this a try later, just for fun. After all, it's free!
