TomTom RIDER 2nd Edition gets updated with new features


With prime motorcycling weather nearly here, TomTom has prepped an update to bring a handful of new features to its RIDER 2nd Edition. Aside from including Map Share technology and the "Help Me" menu, the enhanced 2nd Edition GPS will also provide a latest map guarantee, trip statistics and itinerary planning. Reportedly, the upgraded unit will go on sale early next month for £349.99 ($691) / £399.99 ($790) depending on whether you're picking up UK / Ireland maps or all of Europe, but existing 1st Edition / 2nd Edition owners can snag the update gratis via TomTom HOME. No word on a North American release just yet.

TomTom RIDER 2nd Edition motorcycle GPS ready for those mean streets


We knew the RIDER 2nd Edition couldn't be far off, given the PR leakage a few months ago, but TomTom is finally fessing up to the new motorcycle-centric model. The 2nd Edition RIDER brings with it a new waterproof design, redesigned rugged "RAM" mount and bike dock, in-helmet Bluetooth headset for working phone calls and listening to spoken instructions off of the device and an optional car setup kit for boring four wheel usage. The unit runs a 3.5-inch QVGA touchscreen, 380MHz processor, 32MB of RAM, pre-loaded 1GB SD card with US and Canada maps, and measures two inches thick. Of course, none of this rugged GPS action comes cheap: the RIDER 2nd Edition will run you $700 at retail, and is available now.
