Default TomTom?

Any rumors on when the car kit itself is coming out? I am more interested in the car kit than I am the program. Any info is great!

I'm pretty sure you need the program if you're getting the car kit. But no word that I've seen.

This was posted yesterday on MacRumors forum by "lw9090": "I just called tech support at 1-866-486-6866 and spoke to the PDA support and they said they were told that the TomTom app and accessories will be released on the same day at the end of the month. He could not give an exact date. That is around the same time I heard the full navigon version will be released too. I hope they are right. I have a trip planned for the 2nd week in August."

Do you think TOMTOM app requires internet connection? Hope not because I want that app for my iPod Touch

Im sure you could use the kit to hold and rotate with speaker and all that without the program. That seems odd, no?

It actually might not need an internet connection. It could hook to their satellite. Could be grabbing all of it's info from there.

There still has been no leak as to a release date or pricing info.

The previews made it look great but I have a feeling it will be too darn expensive.

I have no doubt the app will be pricey ( hopefully they break it up to East and West Packages and put it around the $25 - $35 mark for each ). The car kit looks amazing and what had me very interested while watching WWDC.
