Hi all,

The New Zealand iTunes App Store now has TomTom app on it and you can see all map regions including Western Europe.

Some info from the app description.

- IQ Routes
- pinch to zoom in and out on the map
contact list access
- POIs and call POI
- safety cameras and speed warnings
- up-to-date map and you can add worldwide locations to suit you

Western Europe is listed as NZ$179.99

The European download looks like a bit more than 1.4GB, while the US/Canada one will be 1.2. I still see no mention of TTS tho.

Assuming the prices are accurate Question , then the combo app and mount might be as much as the XL Live (seen for 190 euros today). Not a great price point when competing with Navigon, Ci-Pilot Live and iGo, all very worthy apps.

The few bullet points I've listed in the first point were really the only features listed.

NZ$179? Flippin 'eck that's near £75.00

They'll have a hard time selling at that price given the other options!

At last!,
but at £75 its going to have to be something special - especially if I have to add the cost of a mount to improve reception?

No mention of 'live' services either?

See any big feature missing besides TTS? Perhaps no ALG either?

I'd like to think so, but in the list of included voices, there's no TTS ones. It would be very unlike TT not to trumpet a feature like that.
