iPhone GPS from Tomtom
Dec 13, 2007 gps navigation, phones, tomtom
It is all rumors at this point but apparently Dutch GPS navigation system manufacturer TomTom is developing an add-on module for the iPhone. We’ve had many thoughts on getting GPS on iPhone and this one seems to be the closest as far as a real navigation system (unlike the GPS-free version through Navizon or Google Maps soon available on iPhone).
Further rumors suggest this GPS module will be unveiled at MacWorld 2008 next month and the actual product will have maps of the continental U.S. instead of Netherlands and will also work on an actual vehicle dashboard unlike a wooden table as seen in the slightly fake picture.
However, what makes this rumor slightly credible is that TomTom already offers the software to bring GPS navigation to PDA and other mobile devices (TomTom NAVIGATOR 6) and Apple may choose them over other brands because of their experience in the field… via
UPDATE: Now we know this wasn’t real.
