 Good for the price April 28, 2008
A little hard to use due to the size, but has a lot of nice features. The customer service is out of India, and are the slowest to respond but once it's up and going, for the price it's a steal. I give it full recomendations.
 Gets me where I need to go! April 8, 2008
After playing with the store display at my local Fry's a million times, I finally decided to buy this baby (from Amazon, of course).
It's portable and that allows me to map my next journey while I'm grabbing a burger. That also allows me to use it in any vehicle I'm in without setting up an antenna wire. It's loud enough and I don't have to turn off the radio while I'm driving. It recalculates routes very quickly.
The printed instructions/user guides leave a little to be desired (minus one star), but luckily I like to explore gadgets and have figured out everything I need to.
The battery life is adequate. Though, I generally plug in everything to charge while driving (phone, iPod).
All in all, I'm very pleased with my purchase.
absolute winner, pleasure to use March 21, 2008

my first gps (Mio 310) was stolen, so i decided to take a look at TomTom 920 (has european maps) and Garmin nuvii 650(good reviews)...
The fact that TomTom 920 lists POI by name only (no address or city name) turned me off righgt away, also the screen is hard to read on a sunny day.
When i took Mio310 out of the box, i thought it is too small(especially after TomTom's 4 in screen), but after using Mio310 for a day, I am sure i don't need a huge screen("small TV") with just roads on my windshield window; in addition huge screen makes TomTom920 and Garmin Nuvii bulky and in NYC you better take it out of the car.
Mio 610 pros:
-very neat and cute design
-size
-packaging: wrist strap with stylus, neck strap, windshield mount, car charger, wall charger, earphones with volume and play control
-user interfase and very intuitive menues
-well organized POI, nice POI listing - with addresses, so you don't need to click on every one to find out where it is located
-Canadian Maps
-price; (TomTom has a big selection of voices, languages, car images, map colors and many other things(built-in and downloadable, free and not free); i think that many of them i will never use, for example I need just one pleasant voice and one good map color choice)
-love its 3D map, easy North-up, Route-up and North-up plane-view switch, smartZoom
-can be used just as an mp3 player
-nice WorldMate travel kit
-many other features that i yet need to explore and don't need to pay for
Cons:
- i am not sure where i can buy Eropean Maps
Hope it helps. Thanks to mio-tech for the great product.
great little gps February 17, 2008
this is a great little gps. where the screen isn't as big as otherr car navigation systems it is very portable and the directions are very clear through vocal directions. it has all the maps in it so scouting out a path prior to travel is simple.
it took a litte practice to figure out how to use all the features, but after that, it is fantastic!
also, the battery life is good but not great. but it comes with a power adapter for your car for those long drives...as long as i remember to grab it...lol
and the games are fun too...
