Mobile Maps Europe – Navigationslösung von Sygic im App Store [Update]

Update 27.06.09: Die App wurde wieder aus dem App Store entfernt, da es den iTunes-Error #8003 beim Kaufen gab. Mehr dazu →
Schon im Februar haben wir das erste Mal das über eine Navigations-App von Sygic berichtet. Im März wurde dann bekannt gegeben, dass das Programm bald im App Store erscheinen würde. Das war aber etwas vorschnell, denn anscheinend hat Apple die App nicht in den App Store gelassen und so wurde die Software am 2. Juni zuerst in Cydia unter dem Namen iDA veröffentlicht.
Nun, 4 Monate nach der ersten Ankündigung, ist die Applikation endlich im App Store erschienen und ist somit die zweite “vollwertige” Navigationssoftware neben MobileNavigator von Navigon.
Der Preis beträgt 79,99€.
