A neat thing about Android (which now also works on the iPhone) is that it comes with a free turn-by-turn GPS navigation app. I mean, TomTom and Navigon are great, but having to drop almost a $100 on them is very painful.

to other smartphone platforms, including the iPhone, although it wouldn’t say when.
Bad news for TomTom, good news for us! Just hoping this will be international.
