I used to use Microsoft Map Point. (back before portable GPS's were mainstream) It does route planning but it doesn't announce turn by turn directions.

Maybe Microsoft Streets and Trips might do it?

iGuidance was good. But the map could be a little dated unless there's an update recently?

But come on Turbo E, all the handheld GPS are so cheap. Some 7" from deal extreme are like $110 or so. Why bother with bulky netbook.
