"From the Manufacturer (June 19, 2008)"
Maximize your driving experience with easy-to-follow voice-guided directions and access to over 3.5 million points of interest with the svelte, stylish Mio Moov 310, which features an extra-large widescreen 4.3-inch LCD for clearer text and more map on the screen. It comes with a 12-month Traffic Messaging Channel subscription, which helps you to avoid unexpected accidents, road blocks and traffic jams with its real-time traffic alerts. With pre-loaded maps of all 50 U.S. States and Puerto Rico, the Mio Moov 310 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 310 comes with a one-year paid Traffic Messaging Channel (TMC) subscription. Powered by ClearChannel's network of affiliates, TMC provides real-time updates on accidents, detours and construction that could delay or prevent drivers from reaching their destination. With TMC real-time alerts, you'll be warned early of trouble spots up ahead and get suggestions for routes around the obstruction. The Mio Moov 310 sports a 4.3-inch, square-shaped display (480 x 272-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 310 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 310 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. The SiRFInstantFixII chip 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. Other features include: - With over 3.5 million points of interest, it's easy to find restaurants, gas stations, emergency assistance, hotels and more.
- United States street-level maps are pre-loaded on the 1 GB internal memory
- SD/MMC memory card slot for additional map loading
- USB port for connection to your PC
- Internal speaker
- Dimensions: 5.1 x 3.3 x 0.7 inches (WxHxD)

 I would buy it again September 19, 2008
I bought it about 3 months ago when I moved. It is especially reliable when negotiating small residential roads. The POI is more than sufficient. It has directed me to the exact location 99.99% of the time, which I think is satisfactory.
Cons: My husband owns a Magellan and I agree that MIO 310 powers up slower initially, maybe 15 secs slower, when locating the start-up location. The power cord could be longer and the battery-life is shorter compared to the Magellan. Either leave it plugged in all the time or charge it up with the USB cord on your laptop or computer.
Overall, it's a thumbs-up for me.
Great Product July 31, 2008

Very good product. It works very well, fast to find signal, large screen. It is perfect on United States. In South America, for instance, you do not have maps for while. In this case you will have to use an older version of Miomap.

Pro: very satisfied with this product. Initial startup went well over the internet setting it up. Scrren is large and clear, voice is clear and on the money with directions so far.
Price purchased at was good. Recommend
con: initial startup when being used to locate signal seems a little slow
 MOOV to a Garmin unit if you want GPS July 9, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The Mio MOOV unit was compact, with a bright screen and would be easy for travel. Unfortunately, that's where it left off. The touch screen cannot be calibrated and on the unit I had it required me to touch to the left and below the icon I needed. Try spelling when you can't tap the key properly! Once I did enter anything, it took quite a while to calculate the route, although it seemed accurate once it did. The response time after clicking an icon was very long, so I clicked multiple times on the icon, but the system thought I had clicked on subsequent screens and took me there so I could never figure out where I was in the menu. Garmin's NUVI unit is more resposive overall and is what I'm sticking with.
 My husband LOVES his! July 4, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I researched GPS systems for hours before choosing this unit as a Father's Day gift for my husband. It is his 1st tracking device, but he has repeatedly commented on how much he loves it. He travels approximately 4 days per week, making stops along the way to see customers on a daily basis. A large portion of his territory is new for him, and he is unfamiliar with the locations of his customers' offices, so he is delighted not to have to pull over to consult a map, or sit in a client's parking lot mapping out his next stop. He found programming it simplistic, and it only took a few hours to put in his entire customer base. He loves that he can find Hooters along the way, as well as his hotel locations easily. He thought he could live without one, but now, he doesn't how he managed with only a map. I am just tickled I found a gift that not only surprised him, but one he actually likes! I plan to buy another for our son, and possibly one for myself.
I was concerned that this model had only 3.5 million POI's (points of interests), as opposed to 6 million which seemed to be more common among the other brands, but thus far, everything he was looking for has been stored within the unit. (Knock wood.)
If your husband/boyfriend has large hands, the 4.3" screen is a must. He barely has room to type as it is. (He wears a size 13 ring.)
We live in Florida, and he has no problem seeing the screen in the bright light. He does take it out of the vehicle when he's not in it, though, to prevent theft, so I cannot say how well it withstands heat. It does fit in his pocket. If you have never owned a GPS before, this one is a great one to try. It has only misled him 3 times out of perhaps 250-300, and it does have a "mind of its own". It thinks he should take an entirely different route home from certain locations than he prefers, and he said it does get quite insistent when you don't follow directions and turn around!
And one other feature it has that he really likes: It knows ALL of the breaks in the highway. It down't know which ones are illegal U-turns, but it alerts you to a break before you drive up on it, in order to double back, should a U-turn be allowed and needed.
