So basically I am on the right track as far as real time GPS tracking. What it appears is that MP has no internal support for GPS tracking and basically when the GPS updates the LAT and LON I have to rebuild the route using my current location pushpin. And then determine if I am even on the road and run some error checking to make sure.

Whew.... That was a tounge twister.

Is there a GPS emulator that can be used to test this with? That would be alot easier than lugging the laptop to the truck and then trying it...

Thanks for the info...
