GPS Now Here for iPods
We’ve routinely covered the numerous navigation options for the Apple iPhone and its competing smartphones, but if you own an iPod Touch or a first-generation iPhone, which didn’t come with GPS, there’s now a solution for you.
PosiMotion is selling a portable GPS router for $99; it can enable up to 200 devices with accurate GPS locations. The company also sells a navigation app in the iTunes store for $39 to make the whole thing work.
Why on earth would you spend as much money on this device and its software as you would on a decent unit from Garmin or TomTom? We’re not sure. Perhaps you don’t like the clutter of having yet another handheld — although the GPS router looks to be more clutter — or you’d rather utilize your iPhone’s or Touch’s other features like network gaming. Otherwise, we’re guessing that most folks who want an Apple product for navigation have already moved on to an iPhone 3G or 3GS.
