Mio Technology 269 Satellite Navigation System Review
Pro Review:Biosmagazine.co.uk Review the Mio Technology 269 Satellite Navigation System and they say-"Mio Technology's 269 is a straightforward, easy-to-use GPS navigation system that offers relatively detailed maps throughout Europe. It's also available with Continental US, Alaska, Hawaii and Canada maps. Encased in a sleek, palm-sized chassis, the Mio 269 is supplied ready to go - all software and maps are already included on the unit's 2.5GB hard disk drive. It doesn't support postcodes and the female voice can't be changed, but it requires no setup fees or monthly charges, is portable (built-in Lithium-ion battery supplied) and supports MP3 playback. Therefore, it could be an ideal alternative compared to some relatively expensive built-in automotive GPS systems...."
