Can I navigate with Route 66 Sync on a laptop with built in GPS receiver?

Hi
I wonder if it’s possible ROUTE 66 Sync http://www.66.com/route66 Version 9.7 and Lenovo x100e ( build in GPS ) could work like something between an usual laptop and a handhold (phone 3G).

You can see very good 3D Maps with some buildings ( try Copenhagen or Prague ) if you try R66 free to download and run.

I know its’ phoneGPS but its’ a fantastic performance and to me its’ working better than Googles’ streets.
I’ll wonder if Google maps not are involved or supplier.
In Denmark I pay app. 1£ or 2 $ each MB - to information.

It looks like Route 66 will only run on smartphones (S60 and Windows Mobile). The Thinkpad x100e is a netbook that runs regular Windows. I would not expect Route 66 to run properly on it.

Thanks to Ken

Still I hope the manufacturer of Route 66 Sync will look kindly to my request or someone else.

The way I see it is to make R66 Sync working with Windows 7 - not so difficult - I shoud say as consumer.
In fact I nearly knew the answer but hope that there would be an challenge to someone.

I phoned the company Route 66 ( Zürich ).
The supporter will hand it over to the expert's - we will see.

Mostly I hope that R66 will create a new program for PC with GPS locator similar to the old one.

Some of my freinds are now making plans ( and playing ) with the free Sync program.
I will say - TRY IT - IT's FREE.
Use the move panel in upper right and fly or drive around.
