I was actually considering making routing logic based on google tile imagery - in theory you can detect and "follow" the roads by analysing colors of the tile pixels.. so with some smart forking and recursions it's possible to get the shortest route, detect road splits, merges, etc...
If you think you are up to the task - feel free to grab the code and attempt at either one approach..
