I'm not sure if I know exactly what you are asking for.
You can use mappoint (costs alot though)

Here's a sample app for smartphone -- but I quickly adapted it to work on
PocketPc

This one http://www.codeproject.com/cs/webservices/MapPointSmartphone2.asp
actually does the route, so it's closer to what you were looking for.

like that.

I'm searching an GPS apps that can be used in CF.NET
to get data from sqlce db and the trace a route from
point to point read from this db.
So I search a programmable apps that expose some API.
Some ideas?

Tom tom can be used?

I haven't used TomTom myself, but one of my clients has a project
programmed in vb.net + TomTom for Pocket PC, so yes TomTom can be used.
You need to look yourself for the code though :-(

Unfortunately MS Pocket Streets & Trips has no API.

I haven't used TomTom, but I have browsed their documentation and here is a
link to the SDK documentation

If you want a more in depth look into TomTom:

Look at GpsTools. I'm not sure if it will do everything you need, but it
offers a lot. I use it for one of my applications. There is a forum there
as well that you can ask questions directly to one of the main developers
and they are pretty responsive for support.
