Quickly integrate a Virtual Earth 3D control into your WPF or Surface application

Found this today while looking at Virtual Earth integration. Sounds perfect.

InfoStrat.VE allows WPF and Microsoft Surface developers to take full advantage of Virtual Earth 3D with minimal overhead. Simply reference the dll, add a single VEMap control to your XAML, and you have a map! The control eliminates the Win32 Interop restrictions, so you can do everything with this VE control that you could do with any native WPF control, including:

• Overlay items (no more transparent windows!)
• Rotate and transform the map within the interface (no more boring rectangles, bring on the 360 degree interfaces!)
• Use the map within a Visual Brush (you know you want faded reflections!)
