tomtom GO 930 and 930T
TomTom just announced TomTom GO 930 at CeBIT in Hannover, Germany today. The new model will be available at the end of April for $500 and will feature two new innovations from TomTom.
One of these new features is the IQ routes which makes use of the historical speed data of more than 6.2 billion miles of roads to estimate your arrival rather than just relying on posted speed limits.
The other new feature is the lane guidance (just like Navigon’s Reality View) which provides realistic views of complex freeway intersections and help you stay on the correct lane.
Here are the specs for GO 930:
- maps of US, Canada and Western and Central Europe pre-installed
- 4.3″ widescreen 16:9 format LCD (WQVGA: 480*272 pixels)
- CPU 400 MHz
- 4 GB internal flash memory
- SD card slot

- Lithium-polymer battery (up to 5 hours operation)
and more features:

- Enhanced Positioning Technology (EPT) for uninterrupted navigation even in tunnels or highly-built areas

- hands-free calling with high-quality sound system via Bluetooth
