TomTom iPhone Car Kit Hits UK Apple Store
Posted in: gps, iPhone, navigation, Today's Chili, tomtom
TomTom’s Car Kit for iPhone has returned to the UK Apple Store, according to Engadget, with a shipping time of 1-2 weeks. That means it’s probably going to hit the U.S. very soon.
Should you be excited? I wouldn’t be. There was plenty of back and forth over just what TomTom was including in the package. Unfortunately, it turns out not much, as a disclaimer now spells out quite clearly on the UK store site:
The TomTom app for iPhone is not included with the TomTom Car Kit. The Car Kit dock is compatible with all iPhone models, but the TomTom app only works with iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G.
In other words, it’s a mount and a speaker for $120. Add $100 for the TomTom iPhone app, and you could buy yourself a better-performing, Editors’ Choice-winning, 3.5-inch TomTom One 140-S with almost a hundred bucks left over.
