With its turn-by-turn navigation software, MobileNavigator, successfully launched on the iPhone, Navigon is preparing to release a car kit for everyone's favorite fruity phone.

A photo of the car kit (right) was unveiled on Navigon's official Facebook page--of all places--but details are sparse at the moment.

According to the company's wall post, the kit contains a cradle for the iPhone with a suction cup mount that, unsurprisingly, looks a lot like the overgrown shoe fitter we saw on the Navigon 4350 max. It will also ship with a charging cable to keep your phone juiced while you drive.

Pricing and availability have yet to be revealed. However, considering that there's no supplementary technology, such as an integrated GPS chip or additional speaker, this cradle should cost considerably less than TomTom's tech-laden cradle, which will cost around US$100 in the US.
