External IP Address and location from C#.NET windows application (big points)

How can I get External IP Address and location from C#.NET windows application?

I have a windows application that has access to the internet, but I just want to get the user's external IP address, and then send it to a PHP page for recording. I realize I can do this by getting the external IP address via PHP or any other server-side language...but I want to know if it's possible via C# code on the client.

The whole idea is to figure out who in the world is using my application, by tracking the IP address by location. Please also give me links to any IP to Location services that you have used.
