Mio C250
Mio has introduced in the UK, a value priced GPS that has some impressive features at an impressive price. The best feature I see is that it's from Mio, which I believe is one of the second tier GPS brands that's worth watching. I say that because in using the Mio Digiwalker C310 earlier this year, they got a lot right, which is more than I can say for a lot of the brands that don't come out from the GPS Titans. The unit comes with a 400mHz CPU, a 3.5 inch screen and the
SiRF star III chipset. It will play MP3's too. It's priced at 170 Pounds or about $325 US. The flat form factor and the SiRF Star III chipset at this price should turn some heads.
I will say that from the picture, the unit seems to have gone to some well done icon based navigation around the unit's menus, but the bar down the left side along with icons down the right seem to crowd out the map a bit.

I've been using the Mio range for a few years now after starting out with the Mio 268 when it was first released. The Mio C250 is a world apart from the older units that I was used to. It has the latest MioMap V3 which is nice and easy to use. I just need to get the TMC receiver for live traffic now!
