Embedding Google Earth to RR

Has anyone tried embedding Google Earth to RR? I tried getting the Class name + Window name with WinSpy, ended up with a search string of !QWidget!Google Earth, the only problem i have it seems that the windows that is trying to embeed is the first one that is a "warning" that it cant connect, and not the actuall Google Earth window. Anyone have succesfully got GE embedded?? Please tell me its possible, because im working on an app that will interface GE with a GPS for real time tracking (would require to have your city cached on GE in order to have it working of course, or have a internet connection on your car if you dont want to cache all)

Can you cache all the data from one state or city? Because I had a simple google earth tracking program that I wrote. And will google earth run if there is no internet connection?

For now you have to manually browse, but yes, if you cache everything, you can "browse" being offline. Just remember to increase the cache limit (not sure how much cache would need for a city)

I think its thou the fact that it spawns multiple windows, and all windows are named Google Earth * (the main window is just titled "Google Earth".
Is there a way to put a specific windowstring ??

SB works, and the working skin for GE looks really nice, but its not stable. RR embed alone, or w\ button presses similar to some skins use with iGuidance would be ideal until the next SB release
