I purchased the Mio C230 to replace an old Magellan system that I had. The reason that I replaced the Magellan was because Magellan had stopped supporting my model with new map updates. I chose the Mio C230 because it was the least expensive model that would speak street names (rather than simply, "take the next right," for example). What a disappointment this has been!

I got the Mio because of text to speech and that is good, but only for correct directions and that doesn't happen very often. Take a look at the Niko, you'll be smarter than me.

The time feature doesn't work. It is four hours ... Read More

I have only had my Mio for a few days but I am quickly learning how to use it. It is my first GPS experience and I love it. The only negative I can see is that updates are not available and some new addresses are not coming up.
