RIM's Blackberry Watch confirmed
It has long been rumored that RIM will manufacture a handy watch. Today, an image has leaked of this rumored watch. It will be an accessory to your BlackBerry smartphone, so it will differ from the LG’s version which is a phone itself.
The watch will have a big OLED screen. It will result in a clear screen with a long battery life. The accessory will most probably be called inPulse when it gets officially released.

I think I’ll get myself one of these. Don’t know if the thing will start to peel of after a while, but it’s worth trying :)

TomTom Car Kit for iPhone – UPDATED
We today reported that the TomTom Car Kit was released in the Apple Online Store with a price tag of 99.95€. The store page was soon after that taken down. The weird part was that the product page stated that the iPhone application would also be included in the package.
Now TomTom has released a statement that the application will not be included. So the total price jumped from almost 100€ to nearly 200€ in a few hours.

Navigon reveals more info of their iPhone car kit
According to a German iPhone news site, Navigon has now officially released a car mount for the iPhone. The mount will come with a car charger, and be available in October. The price is expected to be a little bit under 40€.
What makes this mount so much cheaper as the TomTom mount is, that it will not have it’s own GPS-chip. The Navigon car navigation will only rely on the A-GPS chip of the iPhone. This will make the navigation a little bit less accurate, and slower.
If I was in need of a navigator, I would go with the TomTom mount :)
