Conclusion

We have seen a variety of possible interactions between SQL Server 2008 and Virtual Earth. The main advantages I see in this combination are the abilities to:

spatially analyze and aggregate the data where they are being held, i.e. in the database and
extend the existing data in Virtual Earth with your own data
