The satellite navigation service provided by TomTom has been updated to the 1.5 version and is available from the iTunes App Store, it has all of the standard features that have been smartened up, but the addition of search by photo is an interesting concept.
Simply select and image that has been geo tagged and the TomTom system will do the rest, it is a simple and very effective of getting around, it also saves all of that messing around at the start of journey, although geo tagging the images is essential preparation work!
