    So TomTom's partnered with Google (you can routes/destinations on Google to your TomTom), Eclipse (TomTom navigation embedded in an in-dash radio) and now Apple.

    I duno ... I jacked up my Verizon xv-6800 PPC over half a year ago with TomTom, and I'm a numbskull when it comes to hacking smart phones. So I'd figure it'd be a no brainer that iPhone would have it. The thing is, it sucks batteries empty like no one's business, if you're not plugged into an external power source.

    Well I have a TomTom and I've added games, video capability and picture and music capability to my ONE New Edition (2006 model). Beats having to pay for the GOx20 or x30 models. TomToms run on Linux so it's easy to create apps for it.
