"From the Manufacturer (June 19, 2008)"
Get easy-to-follow voice-guided directions and access to over 3.5 million points of interest with the svelte, stylish Mio Moov 200 portable GPS receiver. It's a great choice for adding to your car using the included windshield mount and car power cord, and it can also be used while on foot thanks to its rechargeable battery. With pre-loaded maps of all 50 U.S. States and Puerto Rico, the Mio Moov 200 is ready to operate in minutes with no computer set-up required. Other features include 1 GB of internal memory, an SD/MMC memory card slot, and up to 2.5 hours of battery life.
Never miss a turn with 3D indicators and clear voice turn-by-turn guidance. |
The Mio Moov 200 sports a 3.5-inch, square-shaped display (320 x 240-pixel resolution) with a bright, anti-glare screen for easy viewing in any environment. All the controls, buttons and menus accessed via the touchscreen have been optimized for ease of use and fast access to the features you use the most. If you know the address of your destination, you can use the software's address-entry wizard and its on-screen keyboard. You can also use the Multi-stop Trip Planner function if you're running several errands. The Moov 200 allows you to save up to 200 destinations in a favorites list for easy access to your most visited addresses and points of interest.While most GPS devices will alert you that you are "about to turn left in 100 yards," the Moov 200 goes a step further and includes an advanced Text-to-Speech feature that reads the actual street name as your next turn approaches--enabling you to spend more time watching the road and less concentration on the GPS screen. Mio Moov devices feature the new SiRFInstantFixII GPS receiver, which deliver faster GPS signal locks so you can begin navigating as soon as you're ready to drive. The SiRFInstantFixII chip can find and lock a GPS signal in as few as five seconds during typical device start-ups, almost half a minute faster than other GPS devices. For users in cities where tall buildings can impede GPS signals--creating "urban canyons"--a fast signal requisition can be the difference between missing a turn and arriving on-time. Other features include: - With over 3.5 million points of interest, it's easy to find restaurants, gas stations, emergency assistance, hotels and more.
- United States street-level maps are pre-loaded on the 1 GB internal memory
- SD/MMC memory card slot for additional map loading
- USB port for connection to your PC
- Internal speaker
- Dimensions: 3.8 x 3.3 x 0.7 inches (WxHxD)

The Mio Moov 200 is compatible with the optional Traffic Messaging Channel (TMC) subscription service, which can provide real-time updates on accidents, detours and construction that could delay or prevent drivers from reaching their destination. With TMC real-time alerts, you'll be warned early of trouble spots up ahead and get suggestions for routes around the obstruction. What's in the Box

 A Solid Value December 1, 2008
Dustin F
I have had this GPS for about a month and used it to drive to and around St Louis during the recent election.
The main cons people have against this device are the Points of Interests feature and the Enter a Location feature. Both are a bit odd, I guess because the database is larger than the processor can handle. I got used to it pretty quickly, but I was frustrated at first and suspect a lot of folks who hate it simply gave up before getting used to it. Now I find it extremely easy to use. You just have to remember that it needs to narrow downward (so it is going to ask for the Streetname, and then ask for the House Number).
The Points of Interests are disorganized. It has a huge database of things in it, and many of the comments here claiming that locations aren't in the device are inaccurate. It's that it's very difficult to search for some Points of Interest... and they might as well not be in the database. It still works if you're patient enough. I typically don't care much that I can't find State Historical Marker #43412.A.
It's rugged enough to take a lot of abuse, it has great routes (and route options and corrections), it's accurate and fast, and it names the street you need to turn onto if Text to Speech is on (which is far safer than looking at the screen sometimes). For the price, this is an excellent device.
I downloaded a file that I put on an SD card, and I boot mine into the hidden Windows environment, so mine doubles as a mediocre PDA.
 Great for the price November 11, 2008

For the price I paid, I think It's a bargain. It does a good job of navigating. The reason why I gave it a 4 star rating, is the fact that it does not come with it's own USB cable if you want to hook it up to your computer and charge it, or update it.I think you have to purchase it separately. I happened to have one at home that fit the port on the GPS. Also, It cannot locate the exact street of my home, so I have to save my home base as another street in the subdivision. Overall, it might not be the most detailed GPS, but it gets you where you need to go most of the time.
 Garbage - buy ANY TomTom instead November 6, 2008

TomTom is the absolute king of GPS, accept no substitution.
I tried this GPS and compared it to the TomToms I have tried, it was garbage.
The TomTom is worth it's weight in diamonds yet it only cost $150 at WalMart.
TomTom !!!! I'll never go on a trip without one!!!
Great function. Low Cost! October 27, 2008

I have had my Mio Moov 200 for about 3 weeks now and find it to be quite easy to use; and more than I would have expected at such a bargain price! The device was easy to figure out and the MIO manufacturer website provides several easy to follow online video tutorials for the more "technically challenged" users out there. As with all devices, there is a bit of a learning curve.
For instance, one potential drawback is that if you are planning a LONG route with multiple stops, it's better to break it into shorter segments so that when/ if you miss a turn or encounter an unexpected road detour, your device does not take too long to recalculate the route (the more "waypoints" you have the longer the recalculating route takes). When you have just a handful of "waypoints" the route recalculation works rather quick.
Using the device in downtown Washington DC has been very helpful, especially with the fast recalculating time since many of the streets in DC have "irregular" rules, some one-way streets that the device did not recognize and special turning lanes where one is not permitted (or able) to turn from the main roadway.
A really helpful feature of the device is that it will indicate in voice and onscreen the upcoming turn and let you know when to merge/ stay right or left. This is especially helpful in unknown areas (such as in St. Louis, MO where I went recently for the 1st time - knowing what lane to be in ahead of time was immensely helpful!)
Every once in a while the device would "freeze," but a brief turn-off and back on of the device reset it. I like the auto-feature for day display to night and the POI's (Points of Interest). Although, one small complaint I have for the POI's is that it would be nice if you could select to view UPCOMING POI's on your route rather than simply the closest ones which can make you back-track somewhat.
Overall, the functionality for the price cannot be beat. It is easy to get up and running.
Cheaper, Works just as well October 16, 2008

I work for a TV station in a new area and needed to be able to find places I've never been fast. This was the best price I could find on a GPS that said the street names and so far it works great. No complaints.
