I just posted the Web.Maps.VE v2.0 Feature Roadmap to the site. Go check it out to see what features are coming in the next release of Web.Maps.VE that is due out June 30th, 2008.
Some of the features coming in Web.Maps.VE v2.0 are Find, Reverse Geocoding (via FindLocations), CustomIconSpecification, Enhanced 3D Map Support, Plus many more.
See the list for yourself: http://simplovation.com/page/webmapsve20/roadmap.aspx
Plus, Web.Maps.VE v2.0 will be released under a "Per Developer" license, instead of the "Per Website" license that v1.0 uses.
