TomTom iPhone Ver 1.1 - Minor Fixes
TomTom has released a minor update for the iPhone - it is free. The update mainly deals with left over from the first launch and not the awaited upgrade that blows out some functionality. Unfortunately, the entire 1.2GB update is needed. The TomTom iPhone ver 1.1 App includes:
Enhanced GPS Technology:
Shows your location on the map with greater precision
Follows your car more accurately while you drive
New Navigate to Contact Engine:
Handles many more address formats including abbreviations
Better supports US addresses
What a lot of people that I talk to are hoping for is the upgrade that includes:
Text to Speech - says road names
Lane Guidance - shows which lane you should be in when coming to a complex highway interchange
Optional traffic coverage - uses the connected nature of the iPhone to collect very detailed traffic news and offers back intelligent route offerings.
I expect these features to be offered sooner than later.
