Sat Nav on iPhone
JUNE 2009 UPDATE: TomTom software has been confirmed for the iPhone – Read More.
Since the launch of the iPhone 3G last week, stories are surfacing on the availability of a full Sat Nav application. Rumours were flying around prior to its launch that TomTom had a full version of its mapping software ready to launch, and according to Gizmodo, TeleNav have a version ready for release too. Nothing as yet has been confirmed on release details, but it would seem that there are a few issues that the software vendors will need to resolve first.
Software developers have stated that the iPhone SDK (software development kit), bans the use of real time navigation, presumably to avoid any potential lawsuits from people directed into a ditch by their iPhone. No doubt developers such as TomTom and TeleNav will be working closely with Apple to make sure this doesn’t happen.

I’m not that keen on pink but, there is one thing I’d like to know and can’t quite work out from the photos. Is the back like the black S2, bobbly, or like the white S2, shiny? The black S2 put me off the S2 to be honest but, I love the white one (and the black one has grown on me and if there weren’t rumours surrounding an S3, I’d have a black S2 by now!)
i m trying to run the SAT NAV with aussie maps.. but errors keep coming up on installation?
Interesting stuff, from what I hear the home navigation key on the iPhone always shuts down your application and there is no possibility to save your game or in this case your map/route. Wonder how that’s going to work?
