Amsterdam, 01 November 2011 – TomTom today announced that it will roll out the GO LIVE 1005 WORLD in four more countries after the successful launches of a PND with travel specific apps in the USA and Germany. The new device, featuring driver-friendly versions of Twitter, Expedia and TripAdvisor, and a map of the world will be made available in The Netherlands, Spain, Italy and United Kingdom.

"This new connected PND brings a new level of convenience to travellers and shows our commitment to continuously enhance our Consumer product offering." says Corinne Vigreux, TomTom Managing Director Consumer.

Each of the new Search & Go LIVE Services have been created to work seamlessly with TomTom's map and routing technology.

The TomTom LIVE device will calculate the quickest route to avoid traffic congestion using TomTom HD Traffic.

The device comes standard with pre-installed maps of Europe, the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South-East Asia and Southern Africa, so drivers can go wherever they want, immediately.
