Im not saying TomTom couldnt of lowered the price, they could have, but you cant expect them to sabotage their main product line, standalone GPS's.

I use Sygic on my Iphone but will look into TomToms offering. Competition is always good.]]>Aug 17th 2009 2:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 2:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 2:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/:-(]]>Aug 17th 2009 2:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/> "but you cant expect them to sabotage their main product line, standalone GPS's."

The number of non-iPhone users vastly outnumber those with iPhones.

This is a neat product, for a very popular phone... but considering how many iPhones there actually are in the market... this shouldn't cut into their normal GPS units.

This might cut into the sales of their standalone GPS units when:

1) the person has an iPhone
2) they don't already have a GPS unit
3) they would even want to turn their phone into a GPS unit... some people still like to have a separate device... to loan to a spouse, a friend, etc

But, if the person still buys the iPhone TomTom software... TomTom still makes a sale!]]>Aug 17th 2009 3:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/
AT&T only charges if you want to use their GPS software, which i believe is tele nav (anyone confirm?). You are free to use the GPS hardware with whatever software is out for the OS of your devise without a monthly charge. Ive had GPS on my last 3 phones and have never paid a charge to unlock it monthly or otherwise. So stop spreading FUD about AT&T when you dont know what youre talking about.

And now that i sound like an AT&T fanboi verizon does have an overall better network in the US, but not in my area.]]>Aug 17th 2009 3:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/

So you are navigating away and a call comes in and you lose the map, have to reopen the app when you are done, wait for it to reconfigure and hope it has state saving otherwise its back to typing in where you were going.

This, radio style and geo-caching apps are 3 excellent examples where no multitasking is tedious.

Any iPhone owner who says otherwise is either a Troll or really hasn't thought through the situation.]]>Aug 17th 2009 2:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 2:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 2:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 5:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 6:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 7:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 8:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/
If you take a call while the TomTom app is running, navigation will pick up right where it left off and automatically continue when your call is finished. However, if you want to make a call, you will have to exit the application and restart navigation. ]]>Aug 17th 2009 1:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 5:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/17/tomtom-navigation-for-iphone-3g-and-3gs-arrives/Aug 17th 2009 1:42AM
