Believe me when I say I’ve never been tempted by a novelty GPS voice until now. Mio are set to release a Knight Rider-themed sat-nav system that features the authentic voice of KITT. That’s right, not a naff impersonation, but actual voice prompts and comments from actor William Daniels. It’s fun from the first time [...]
Mio, long time manufacturer of GPS devices, is partnering with ATX, a major provider of telematics services in both the US and Europe. The types of things this partnership will bring you include lots of location-aware types of data including local weather, weather for your planned destination, in-depth traffic info, and business directories that change [...]
Mio makes some pretty amazing navigation products but the Mio Moov devices have so much new going for them. First off they have the first all Mio developed UI and nav software installed.
Mio Technology has officially released their DigiWalker C520 that was shown off back at CES earlier this year. It promises to be one of the best in their portable GPS lineup yet.

Be honest with me now. Do women actually need their own, specially-designed sat-nav? Mio seems to think so, although “specially-designed” to them appears to mean “slap some flowers on it”. The H610 has the dubious pleasure of being the first GPS unit aimed squarely at woman, costing £280 ($532.50) and sporting a variety of interchangeable [...]
You’ll hear this one a lot: “If Apple made a GPS, it’d probably look like Mio’s H610″, but then Mio invite it upon themselves by designing a unit that would even make Jonathan Ive do a double-take. The slick white case, the absence of cluttered controls, the achingly sharp screen… it blows the capable but [...]
