With Homer already the most downloaded GPS app ever, they’ve now set their sights on Mr. Burns and Marge. Barking things like, “take the third right, do it, driving monkey” and “exit right ahead. Hmm, it smells a little funky in here, was Homer in this car” this device is sure to keep people smiling. For more info and to voice previews, check out TomTom’s site…
GPS navigation firm TomTom today announced that it has brought its Homer Simpson celebrity voice for turn-by-turn directions to its U.S. iPhone applications, appearing as a $5.99 in-app purchase.
New day, new app in Cydia: Navigate From Maps. This tweak enhances the Maps app by adding a ‘Navigate Here With TomTom’ button to the info view of search result or a drop pin. Now you can search or plan for where you need to go much faster and easier in Maps but still navigate there with TomTom.
NOTE: requires TomTom app to be useful. TomTom sold separately in the App Store.

How much for an iPhone-powered TomTom satnav? That’s the question that has been on the lips of many an iPhone user ever since TomTom announced it was developing a version of the market leading turn-by-turn satellite navigation system especially for the iPhone. Now, it seems, we are a little closer to knowing the answer. I just hope you are sitting down before I reveal it.

According to one online retailer which has broken ranks and gone public with pre-order pricing, if you want an iPhone-powered TomTom satnav in your car it will cost you a cool £113.85 ($193.75) or which works out to £99 ($168.50) plus tax. Which is not, by a long shot, the most expensive iPhone app.
A cool feature of iGo My Way will be that it will allow you to view the building in 3D and the graphics of the various menus is simple, colorful and essential. It seems that the price will be not to spicy as well ( or at least lower than TomTom announced )
My guess is that, since WWDC 09, most of you are waiting for TomTom or at least any other navigation software.
Well TomTom announced some cool features and accessories for their iPhone debut, but it seems that another software will arrive to the mighty appstore before TomTom does, and its called: iGo My Way.

Finally iPhone gets turn-by-turn navigation from TomTom
It’s been a gap in the functionality of the GPS-enabled iPhone 3G for months, and one that was promised for the 3.0 software update (even though third parties have been trying to get it working for a while now): turn-by-turn navigation. Finally, the light at the end of the tunnel has been conclusively demonstrated not to be an oncoming train; it’s the faint guiding glow from TomTom for iPhone, the first announced TBT navigation package for the 3.0 software (X-Road is already in the store for 2.1 devices).
There’s no cost information yet (Engadget speculates ‘pricey’ so as not to cannibalize TomTom’s hardware business), and the launch date is only noted as after the June 17th 3.0 software availability, but it certainly looks cool: a software app combined with a custom bracket & charging cable, hands-free calling and ‘enhanced GPS performance’ included. For iPhone owners who don’t yet have in-car GPS, this could be a fantastic offering, if the price is right.
