There have been a plethora of GPS apps released for the iPhone lately, but none as anticipated as TomTom for iPhone.  Included, the TomTom Car Kit, what appears to be the coolest car mount I’ve ever seen.  The kit offers secure docking, enhanced GPS performance, clear voice instructions and hands-free calling, while charging your iPhone at the same time.

According to leaked pricing, one retailer claims the TomTom will be $193.75 or thereabouts. If the $194 price for the TomTom iPhone app is accurate, it makes this smartphone navigation system a bit pricey. You can get a standalone TomTom GPS unit for about $149 on Amazon.  TomTom hasn’t confirmed, nor denied the report.

And there are still a few unanswered questions about TomTom’s iPhone app also. It is yet unclear how the maps update process will be done, how well the app will integrate with iPhone’s limited multi-tasking abilities, and how users will download the 1GB app.

More details should be available though as the application approaches public release sometime later this summer.
