Conclusion: Unit can not be updated.
Review: Purchased this unit with the understanding that map updates were to come very soon. However, there are no map updates available. This unit is a complete waste of money. Roads change often and Mio does not update the maps.... Very low volume on this unit and it does not have text to speech feature. It has some nice features but, outdated maps right out of the box. Now I am stuck with this useless GPS. I got it at PepBoys and now they tell me they didn't sell the unit....

Conclusion: No Updates
Review: I contacted Mio the first day I received this as a present in 2007. I still have the problem number and it, is still on there website when I log in. No updates for the maps. Every time I drive home from work it wants me to go down a dead end street. Then it thinks every road is dirt and will not take me down the shortest route.
I contacted them on there website, called and e-mailed and no help? I will never purchase a Mio again.

Conclusion: In the trash!
Review: After fighting with this GPS for just over a year I threw it out with the trash tonight & just ordered a Megellan Maestro 4250 that my husband has & is quite happy with (& knew better than to trade mine for!). The Mio has never been reliable -- from shutting down for no apparent reason, to requiring me to enter the same destination over and over before it calculates a route, to continually losing its signal, to not recognizing its own map card -- and was not worth a penny of what I paid for it. My advice: spend a little extra money to save yourself a ton of frustration!

Conclusion: You can't beat it for the price
Review: I bought this GPS about 2 years ago now. For the price I paid this C220 is amazing! I drove truck over the road for a while and everyday was taking cargo to places I had no idea where it was. This Mio got me from loading dock to loading dock, every single time. I'm talking a couple thousand trips. It doesn't have MP3 or Bluetooth capabilities, but I didn't want all of that. It did exactly what I needed it to do. I would highly recommend this GPS to anyone that just wants to get from point A to point B....without spending alot of money.

Conclusion: Don't buy this GPS
Review: Here is the number one problem with this GPS; there are no map updates available. I got this unit in 2007 for Christmas and soon after I noticed that neighborhoods that had been built in 2006 were not included on the map. When I was driving in Colorado route 40 wasn't even on the map. When I requested a route from Buena Vista to Winter Park the GPS told me that the destination was not reachable. The POI's are also very limited. The GPS was unable to find the following landmarks. Garden of the Gods, CO, The Grand Canyon, AZ, Hoover Dam, NV. Also the GPS will not route unless you have a specific address to punch in. For example I was driving to Herndon, VA and the GPS could not find a street that was built in 2006. Not knowing the area, I did not know any of the street names so I could not input an address. The next best option would be to route to the city center but the c220 does not have that option. Also the battery on this unit lasts about 1 hour. Here is the kicker, while the US version does not offer an update the European versions offers map updates, firmware updates, a custom POI loader, and a POI updater. Thanks for screwing the U.S. consumer MIO!!!
