We heard earlier this month that Magellan was looking to one-up TomTom by outing an iPod touch / iPhone GPS car kit of its very own, but a few critical details were missing: namely, a price and a release date. Thanks to a new product listing on Amazon (capped after the break), we at least have a clue as to when this thing will be shipping stateside and for how much. If you’ll recall, this one’s compatible with the 2nd and 3rd generation iPod touch as well as the iPhone 3G and 3GS, and aside from providing a built-in speaker, charging capabilities and a noise-canceling handsfree speakerphone, it’ll also work with any navigation or location-based app — not just Magellan’s own $79.99 RoadMate program

That all for the excerpt of a new story about Magellan’s GPS Car Kit for iPhone and iPod Touch: $130, coming next month and don’t miss my next post, keep in touch with me :) or you can read another post of mine. Gadget news from Engadget.

Google has taken much of the wind out of the turn-by-turn navigation industry’s sails this Fall thanks to the introduction of fee-free Google Maps Navigation , but it’s got a fatal flaw for the moment: it’s only available in the States. Navigon must be banking on the fact that Mountain View is going to take its sweet time spreading the love around the world, because it has announced at iCE Amsterdam today that it’ll be releasing its own app for Android on December 10.
