TomTom Kit For the iPhone Is Back

The idea seems fairly straight forward. Provide an iPhone compatible GPS solution, using one of the most popular smart phones available today. But there are a couple of issues, as pointed out in this short article.

First of all, the iPhone application is not included with the TomTom kit for the iPhone. Not really a big deal, considering the fact the means of software delivery used by the Apple enabled phone, I don’t see problem with this at all. That said, there is one small hitch with this. Cost.

How much you ask? Well previously, the TomTom app from the iPhone was available for a whopping 99 pounds. Today, I just looked and it is still available for $99 USD. So to wrap this up, to use TomTom UK on your iPhone 3G or 3G S, you are coughing up cash for both the hardware and the software. You know, something tells me no one in the right mind is going to buy this. Call it a hunch…yikes.
