Peter-Frans Pauwels, TomTom’s co-founder and CTO, demonstrated TomTom’s navigation software in combination with a specially designed car kit on the iPhone- during Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco on June 8th, 2009.
The TomTom solution combines two new TomTom products to provide users with state of the art in-car navigation on their iPhone 3G:
-
The TomTom navigation application for iPhone; an Apple version of TomTom’s award-winning turn-by-turn navigation software, including IQ Routes and latest maps from Tele Atlas;
- The TomTom car kit for iPhone; a specially developed car kit for secure docking, enhanced GPS performance, clear voice instructions, hands-free calling and in-car charging.
To see a quick demo, check out the video to the right.
The TomTom navigation application for iPhone will be available via the Apple iTunes App Store, following the release of Apple’s OS 3.0 operating system. Details regarding pricing and availability for both the application and the TomTom car kit for iPhone will be made available in advance of the products’ launch later this summer.

When will this be available?
i’ve signed up since WWDC, would be nice if we got some sort of update.
We would love to know more about possible release dates on this. I’ve owned two versions of Navigator for previous iPaq pocketpc devices and three different TomTom stand-alone hardware units. I think I’ve demonstrated some loyalty to you folks. An update would be appreciated. You’ve got a sale the moment it hits. I would also suggest opening the car kits for sale a few days prior to the software release so customers can order to have them in on time. You don’t want a crowd of people driving around with software installed trying to hold the phones in hand while driving, I’m sure
