Product Description
Mio Moov product line features new SiRFInstantFixII GPS receivers, which deliver faster GPS signal locks so users can begin navigating as soon as they are ready to drive. SiRFInstantFixII can find and lock a GPS signal in as few as five seconds during typical device start-ups, almost half a minute faster than other GPS devices. For users in cities where tall buildings can impede GPS signals - creating "urban canyons" - a fast signal requisition can be the difference between missing a turn and arriving on-time.
"From the Manufacturer (June 19, 2008)"
Get easy-to-follow voice-guided directions and access to over 3.5 million points of interest with the svelte, stylish Mio Moov 200 portable GPS receiver. It's a great choice for adding to your car using the included windshield mount and car power cord, and it can also be used while on foot thanks to its rechargeable battery. With pre-loaded maps of all 50 U.S. States and Puerto Rico, the Mio Moov 200 is ready to operate in minutes with no computer set-up required. Other features include 1 GB of internal memory, an SD/MMC memory card slot, and up to 2.5 hours of battery life.
Never miss a turn with 3D indicators and clear voice turn-by-turn guidance. |
The Mio Moov 200 sports a 3.5-inch, square-shaped display (320 x 240-pixel resolution) with a bright, anti-glare screen for easy viewing in any environment. All the controls, buttons and menus accessed via the touchscreen have been optimized for ease of use and fast access to the features you use the most. If you know the address of your destination, you can use the software's address-entry wizard and its on-screen keyboard. You can also use the Multi-stop Trip Planner function if you're running several errands. The Moov 200 allows you to save up to 200 destinations in a favorites list for easy access to your most visited addresses and points of interest.While most GPS devices will alert you that you are "about to turn left in 100 yards," the Moov 200 goes a step further and includes an advanced Text-to-Speech feature that reads the actual street name as your next turn approaches--enabling you to spend more time watching the road and less concentration on the GPS screen. Mio Moov devices feature the new SiRFInstantFixII GPS receiver, which deliver faster GPS signal locks so you can begin navigating as soon as you're ready to drive.

I purchased the Mio Moov 200 for a long road trip from Illinois through Wisconsin. Simply put the product works exactly as advertised. The text to speech directions are fairly good with pronunciation that is accurate for most streets. Routing is fairly quick and the device is good at re-routing you if you miss a turn generally within three seconds. This model does not have any of the bells and whistles of other devices like mp3 player functionality or blu-tooth, and to be honest they aren't really missed.
The major draw backs of the device are few, but their are a few. First the touch screen is not always responsive to your touches. I believe it is a sensitivity issue with the large surface area of one's figures. Using the touch screen with a stylus offered much better performance. The other major drawback is the refresh rate of the screen. The distances and directions generally appear to update on your screen about once per second. When you re driving slow this is perfectly fine, but I often times found myself blowing right past a turn when in excess of 50 mph on a highway because the screen didn't update fast enough to tell me my turn was coming up. I often mis-judged 1/8 of a mile and under distances.
Other then that the device works great. The voice is clear and very adjustable. The maps are generally very good and the routing functions are simple but effective.
Mio Moov 200 - Good first GPS May 23, 2008

I bought the Mio Moov 200 as my first automotive GPS a couple of weeks ago. I've had the chance to use the GPS for one long 4 hour trip, as well as around the city here in Minneapolis, and these are my first impressions.
How it looks:
The Mio Moov 200 GPS is a tiny little thing, at less than an inch deep and about 4 inches wide by 3 high. It can easily fit in your pocket if you don't want to leave it in the car. It has a black plastic casing with a brushed metal surface around the touchscreen. It really does look nice sitting on the dash.
The unit has a on/off/reset switch on top of the unit, making it easy to turn on and off whenever you need or reset if it freezes (this hasn't happened to me yet). The left side has a port to insert your SD card with additional maps, or whatever else you need. There are also rumors that the unit is hackable through the SD port to become a small PDA of sorts. The bottom of the unit has a small USB port that allows you to charge the unit, as well as connect to your home PC. On the back of the unit is a small speaker.
How it works:
So far my impressions of the unit are pretty good. Keep in mind I don't have much to compare it to, but so far it does everything that we've wanted it to. We set up a route to go from our house here in Minnesota to a resort at the Wisconsin Dells - about 4 hours away. It got us there without any problems, clearly announcing any turns we needed to make along the way - with clearly spoken names of the streets themselves - not just a "turn right" or "turn left". The speaker is reasonably loud, even when in a loud car - and we had no problems hearing it. In fact if you're in a quiet room by yourself - it seems almost too loud.
We have noticed a couple of quirks/problems with the unit.
1. Funny pronunciations: the unit will sometimes pronounce street names incorrectly, or call them something they aren't. For example there is a "Dean Lakes Trail" near our house, but the unit calls it "Dean Lakes Triangle". There have been quite a few of these types of instances, but overall it does a good job. Definitely not a deal breaker - just more of something to give you a chuckle every once in a while.
2. Incorrect POIs: The unit does have a pretty good sized database of points of interest, however, we have found that some of them aren't quite right. For example, on our trip to the Wisconsin Dells, two or three times that we tried navigating to a point of interest (Walmart and a restaurant), the unit didn't get us to quite the right spot. In both cases we were a block or two away. It may be that the POI was old, or something along those lines, I don't know. There has also been a couple of times we searched for a gas station or other POI we knew was there, but the unit doesn't show it. Not sure why that is.
3. Strange routes sometimes: The unit will sometimes take routes that you may not have thought of, or that aren't really the quickest way to take. It DOES get you there, but not always in the way that you thought it would.
4. Keyboard is hard to type on if you have big fingers like me. Kind of annoying, but again, not a deal breaker.
Conclusion:
We've been happy with the unit so far. For the cheap price and the features you get - it does the job, and it gets you where you need to go. I'd buy it again.
