New iGo Software at CeBit
NavNGo will be showing off their newly designed iGo navigation software platform at CeBit this week in Germany. The platform that runs the Mio C310x and others will hopefully get siphoned into the upcoming Mio products that we are looking forward to this Spring, like the Mio C250, C320, C520 and C720. The new interface will feature a sharper 3-D rendering as well as a split “Basic” and “expert” mode in the interface. Others have tried this not making the difference obvious which sends the expert user in circles looking for functionality that should absolutely be there…. (Trust me on this I was pulling my hair out.)
They also add a feature that I think is a good addition to the entry level, previously reserved for the likes of Garmin or TomTom, and that is the ability to look for a POI along a route. This came up recently when we were looking for a place to eat on a roadtrip, and it’s great to have the POI listings come up that will keep you moving towards your destination without having to guess if the restaurant is near the route or not.
If you have used the Mio H610, then you’ll appreciate the games on the unit and the new iGo package has some development here.
