2 out of 5 stars Old map data   May 15, 2007
 6 out of 12 found this review helpful

The unit is nice and a great value however the map data is so old you will often not find your destination, which is really frustrating. Also don't bother with this unit if you are going to Canada ever. You may be better served by spending a little more and getting current maps. After all that is the reason for a nav system right?

While not a Garmin Nuvi, this GPS is incredible for the price. Pros: Extremely fast screen refresh rates for navigation and route recalculations. It came out of the box ready to go with the entire US database already loaded on the SD card. No need to do anything other than insert the card, turn on the device and go. The battery was even charged enough to use it for a while. Audio is very good considering it's compact size. Very good high contrast screen resolution even in bright sunlight. Cons: Inability to store canned routes. All in all, a no-brainer. Highly recommended!!!

Pros:Preloaded US maps, decent POI database

Cons:No text to speech, very low volume, usage not intuitive

Recently purchased the MIO C220 from Staples. They had it on sale for $199, with an additional $25 for a two year replacement plan. I bouth this unit for my trip to Southern California. My heart was stuck on the the Nuvi 360 for its text to speech, but couldn't afford the price tag.

The MIO actually surpassed my expectations. It's very accurate and route recalculations were right on. The device came with a 1GB memory disk that has the US map and POI database pre-loaded. The POI database is decent and well categorized.

The feature I found most useful and that mitigated the lack of 'text to speech' was the display of next maneuver on the top line. So when the voice says, "Take right in 100 yards", you can glance over the top line and know what street is being referred to.

Not the best GPS out there, but definitely the best GPS for that price.



5 out of 5 stars Simply great!!!   April 30, 2007

I bought this product without reading reviews and am loving it. I used it for few destinations and it's very accurate. Moreover, the processing is very fast that leads to faster recalculation of route if you lost a turn. Mio c220 takes just 15 seconds approx. to recalculate the route and you are back on track. I also liked the screen and resolution. Great product of reasonable money!!! Strongly Recommended.

Amazing little unit for the price. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of more expensive units but then it doesn't cost as much either. I was looking for a small, stand alone unit that was actually big enough to use (unlike the H610 which is so small you could never use it in a car) and this fits the bill. It is small enough to fit in my purse or pocket and has no bulky cable on it. There is no MP3 player but then I have an iPod for that. The instruction booklet doesn't explain everything at all but after you play with the unit for a while you can figure things out. The display is easy to read and the voice is loud enough to hear. I also like the pedestrian mode. All in all, I love this thing!
