Prediction: Apple will Buy TomTom
The prediction, among other for Apple and other companies, is from CCS Insight director of research Ben Wood.
“Apple to buy TomTom”
This one makes sense because Apple clearly wants to reduce its dependence on Google Maps (recall last year’s PlaceBase purchase?) and such a move would help by giving Apple the mapping assets of Tele Atlas, just as it would also give Apple a bunch of patents pertaining to turn-by-turn navigation and more.
Better yet, you could expect a wave of useful location-based features to reach MobileMe, third party apps, and, of course, Apple’s iAds system. And, of course, such a purchase could assist Apple should it decide to make a stab at the auto-electronics market.
Tom Tom shares are currently trading at €7.81—while that’s down a few cents on the stock’s opening price, this means trades are currently set at their highest for the last 12 months.
Aangezien koers TomTom nu maar liefst 4 euro lager is; is overnamebod op TomTom waarschijnlijk ook 880 miljoen voordeliger.
