Heightened map quality and extended coverage from Tele Atlas takes TomTom navigation further ahead

New countries, new features and fully updated road details make TomTom a must-have in convenient personal navigation

Hannover (Germany), March 10, 2005

Tele Atlas, a worldwide leading provider of digital map data and location content, and TomTom, Europe's leading navigation solution provider, feature their pace-setting partnership on stand C53, Hall 11, at CeBIT 2005.

The focus of attention will be the new maps for TomTom users, where Tele Atlas detailed research is bringing them a wealth of new information that is fully up-to-date for roads throughout Europe. And if you are travelling to the United States, the entire US is available to fit on a 1 gigabyte memory card- just sit back and cruise.

Two new countries, Poland and the Czech Republic, are added to the TomTom European navigation atlas. In addition, there are 78,500 km of new roads and 128,330 new points of interest (POIs) that bring the extra dimension to personal navigation. More than simply finding your way, navigation with TomTom systems and Tele Atlas maps enriches travel because you know where you are, where you want to be and how to get there. Travel time is saved, as is time spent searching for restaurants, shops, service stations and many other locations that are important when you need them.

For extra convenience, seven-digit post codes can now be used in the UK to pin down destinations quickly, simply and precisely, especially when the house number is added. Likewise, the six-digit post codes can be used in the Netherlands.
Enhanced Tele Atlas maps are available for the new TomTom GO Range, the all-in-one car navigation solution, TomTom MOBILE 5 for advanced mobile phones, TomTom RIDER, the all-in-one navigation solution for motorcycles and scooters and TomTom Navigator 5 for PDAs.
