Thumbs up Official TomTom on iphone

This has been one thing that bugged me on the iphone. I had TomTom on my N95, but the closest thing i could get on the iphone was an app called xGPS, which does the job, just not as good as TomTom.... Now it can.

TomTom develops turn-by-turn navigation application and new car kit for the iPhone
Peter-Frans Pauwels, TomTom’s co-founder and CTO, demonstrated TomTom’s navigation software in combination with a specially designed car kit on the iPhone- during Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco on June 8th, 2009.

The TomTom solution combines two new TomTom products to provide users with state of the art in-car navigation on their iPhone 3G:
  • The TomTom navigation application for iPhone; an Apple version of TomTom’s award-winning turn-by-turn navigation software, including IQ Routes and latest maps from Tele Atlas;
  • The TomTom car kit for iPhone; a specially developed car kit for secure docking, enhanced GPS performance, clear voice instructions, hands-free calling and in-car charging.
The TomTom navigation application for iPhone will be available via the Apple iTunes App Store, following the release of Apple’s OS 3.0 operating system. Details regarding pricing and availability for both the application and the TomTom car kit for iPhone will be made available in advance of the products’ launch later this summer.

The full kit looks pretty sound as well... not only for use with the tomtom side of it, but also the Dynolicious side of it too

edit: Just read that the suction cupped iphone holder not only holds it securely to the windscreen and dash, but also boosts GPS connection, charges, allows for hands-free calling, plays ipod thru stereo.... pretty mint.

(sorry for sounding a little too excited too )
