TomTom thinking about its own “GPS PDA / smartphone?”
We definitely wouldn’t recommend taking this to heart just yet, but according to DigiTimes, the likes of TomTom (and even Garmin) are “likely to soon launch their own-brand GPS PDA smartphones.” Of course, the news comes smashed in with word that quite a few more notable smartphone manufacturers (such as HTC, i-mate, and HP) are also gearing up to release GPS-enabled handsets in the near future, and while Garmin is no stranger to the mobile GPS realm, this would be (relatively, at least) new territory for ole TomTom. Beyond that, details are scant, but we’ll be sure to keep an ear to the ground.
