Nice price points. Sorry for those who spent $500 for version 1 without 3G and GPS.

Hi Rich
So as the iPhone is officially announced, can you tell us if iNavX for the iPhone will use the built in GPS? Or some of MobileMe functionalities like having charts on .Mac now MobileMe so the the iPhone can access it?
Thx
Manou

GPSnavX, I don't get your reply to cyberhusky. Is MacENC going to take advantage of the features in the iphone?
I'd love to have the laptop connect via wifi or bluetooth to a phone at the bridge, I think a simple thing like Garmin's roadmap showing your crosstrack error, entering waypoints on the phone, or take a picture with the phone ad have macENC make a waypoint that marks it. (BIG ROCK ON LEFT!!) lots of other potentially neato features could be had.

MacENC (The OS X application) will not be running on an iPhone. Being careful not to violate an NDA, yes we will have an application for iPhone/iPOD Touch that supports all the respective features of the device (i.e. GPS, WIFI) and integrates well with MacENC.

My credit card is twitching. A GPS I-Phone with MacENCish software.
On passage it would be useful to, say, run the I-Phone and synch navigational data from time to time with MacENC on the MacBook.
Now how do I get my existing charts into an I-Phone?....
Got to be a bit careful as I will need to Jailbreak the phone to use it with a multiple SIM cards while cruising.

I "unlocked" my Touch without any problems.
These people seem confident they will be able to unlock 2.0
I normally buy a new SIM card when spending more than a couple of weeks in one country. If I can't "unlock" the phone I won't buy one.

A Tom Waits twist of course - I understand the ATT data plan (US customers) will increase $10 per month, plus a new 2 year contract for upgrades. - Charlie

the deal with 02 in the UK is a free upgrade, if you extend you're contract to a full 18months again, which is actually only adding an extra 8 months
I guess "iwhateveritiscalledbutapplesayswecan'ttellyouyet" will be one of my first trips to the app store
