debbieshops2003 Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 AWESOME!!!! THANKS!!!! I ordered one for my mom for Christmas! Great Price!!!
lalaneby Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Anybody know if the SD card with the maps can be used to update other Mio GPS's?
megafrog Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 I have a C220 and it is not very good. If I followed it faithfully, I would have driven into numerous lakes/ponds, trees, houses etc. You are not missing much in not getting this, even for the price.
alexac Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Mine was AWFUL. I don't remember what model it was, but it broke right after the warranty (and I am talking days) and the customer service people left a lot to be desired. The gps on my verizon cell phone is better than a mio...
neile457 Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 The gps is better than my Garmin C550, because the maps are more up to date. But having my c550 is more convenient (plus has a larger screen) than my phone. Plus, my phone is mainly used for phone calls. I think the maps have more to deal with how up to date your software is (mine is 2-3 years old), I would guess this would be good (even if it is 1 year out of date, in most cases). I just can't see paying Garmin $100 to update the maps, when I can buy a nice new GPS for about the same price.
hwolf6330 Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 My sister had a Mio and took hers back. If she would of followed hers it would of took her up a street to get to the highway where there is no access to it. Plus numerous other mess-ups. Some may have better luck with theirs, but I told her to wait and get one on black Friday. I am sure there will be good deals then. Also, don't let this deter you from posting more great deals :)
