"Nice Gps, good price, 4:3 sreen"
Pros: Sweet, everything works perfect NY
Cons: Learning curve is steep when compared to other gps
Summary: I was thinking of getting a Gps as a gift. I read several reviews about this product and also the Garmin Nuvi Gpss. Now i am not taking anything away from Garmin, but the Mio c520 rocks. I got this for 320 off ebay and i couldn't have made a better choice. I am having a blast using it. It is very accurate. It also speaks the name of the street, not just "Turn LEft in 30 ft" but the actual street name. I paired it with my bluetooth phone and was able to make and receive calles thru the unit. The volume is loud. If you are a first time user of GPS the learning curve for it will take a bit longer than traditional GPS. But the end result will be the same. Also the screen is great 4:3" and with a touch can be converted to a 3:5 with the the rest showing information E.G speed, distance ....
I have only used the nuvi 660 for a short time over a freinds house, but this Mio takes the cake hands down. When one compares the price to the amount of features. This is a good deal. The only con as i said before was that with the Garmins it took me around an 1 hr to become comfortable using it. With this it was 3 hrs. After the 3 hrs it was smooth sailing.
