I have a friend with a high-end Garmin GPS and I'm very familiar with its use. I've kinda wanted a GPS but didn't want to spend much money for it. After watching the product video on QVC, the Mio Moove200 didn't seem all that different from the Garmin I know. As is true with all GPS units, if you know where you're going, they sometimes don't seem so smart or efficient but if you're in new territory, they're wonderful. from Qvc.com This makes it difficult when tying in addresses and POIs. I read that it was slow, but I thought that I could work around that. When I go to press a letter as I'm typing in a street name, it that's the Moov about 3-5 seconds to respond. It may not sound like much, but its a nuisance when your just trying to type a name out and it doesn't pick up on the other letters because its still trying to put in the first letter. from Amazon.com But it was too old and time to upgrade. I was looking for other brands out there to give it a try. I went w/ Garmin nuvi 200. It was okay. from Amazon.com I have owned an earlier model GPS for a good handful of years up until I purchased the Moov200. The earlier model did exactly what I wanted it to do, get from door to door. from Amazon.com I bought the basic TomTom One last year about this time in an attempt at findng a cheap GPS replacment for the Garmin. The TomTom was used only about 10 times over the past year until all of a sudden the USB port broke off the motherboard for no reason It would cost more to try and get it fixed than buying a new GPS, and I needed one in 2 days for a trip I was about to take to South Florida. I was looking for the cheapest GPS I could find, this time with text-to-speech, spoken instructions ("Turn left at Maple Street in 1/4 mile" instead of "Left turn ahead") and I discovered the Mio Moov 200. It was on sale for an incredible price and a quick check of the Amazon reviews seemed positive. from Amazon.com 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. from Amazon.com While the 200 appears to be a reasonably nice standalone GPS, MIO has chosen (for the US from Amazon.com Just a note for those who have reviewed this product. Moov 200's will have updates available this fall. The product is brand new, no naturally they would not launch and update if they are brand new. from Amazon.com I bought the mio moov because the price was unbeatable for the text to speech feature. I was told by the clerk that I could update maps online - this is not true. from Amazon.com i have a year old mio digi walker that i bought at radio shack for $99. it seems easier to use compared with the newer mio moov 200. i bought the moov 200 on amazon for $119. from Amazon.com
