TomTom developing module for the iPhone

MacWorld’s coming around the corner, and what would it be without a couple, fresh Apple rumors. Sure we know about the Mac Tablet rumors, and the Sub-notebook, but something fresh. Something different.

Well how’s this for you. Apple and TomTom are working on an external GPS module for the iPhone. nobody wants a GPS built into their phone, because it drains battery and takes a long time to connect. But Apple may be working with third-party hardware makers to improve the functionality of their device. Much like they did with the Nike + iPod deal. A GPS would be pretty useful to have in an iPhone, especially when driving in a car. We’ll just have to wait until MacWorld to find out.
