TomTom and Ford cozy up for semi-integrated navigation in Europe

TomTom and Ford cozy up for semi-integrated navigation in Europe

Ford has teamed up with TomTom in order to offer semi-integrated navigation not in the US, but in Europe instead. From today onwards, TomTom will be integrating its GO LIVE 1000 and GO LIVE 1005 models using a specifically designed cradle for Ford models in Europe. Bear in mind that this is not available in the UK and Ireland at the moment, but who knows what might happen down the road. It seems that this solution is said to be able to deliver a clean semi-integrated solution, where all the wires won't make themselves look out of place since they're tucked away into the dashboard.
