Tom Tom 3rd Edition or Mio C320? :) Also, does anyone know if you can change the POI's in the Mio or are you just stuck with what they give you?

I have the Mio - bought on Black Friday - will return it as I cannot make an Address book of my Favorites (places where I might go on a regular basis). This is an important part of the GPS as far as I am concerned. It may not be important in a small town. I also have used the Address Book on other units in which I set up an address of places I might go either around town or on a trip. Then when I get to the town I just turn it on and choose the Address book location I want and let it direct me.

sorry, can't help you there. I have only used this GPS in the US. You will probably have to do some research with Mio directly to answer your question.

Hi,If the card you buy has the Mio program on it, then all you have to do is change cards. If it doesn't, then you have to load the map(s) into the 'map' folder. I have a back-up SD card for safety, then I just put the maps I want to use into the Map folder on the card I use. You can download a lot of Mio maps for free if you look around for them on the web. Hope this helps

You can order the maps or firmware upgrade from the seller you purchased from. I have these. Thanks.

MIO's map data is only a few months old in the MIO c520. The map data belongs to Tele Atlas. The Garmin is Nav Tech data. Garmin will update their data in August of 2007. What is your home address that you said was not in the MIO? Can you see it on the map? If so you may be entering it incorrectly where there is a different name for the street in the map database.

Thank you. I did hold my breath and opened up the box yesterday, and the Mio seems to be working fine. I downloaded the manual from the Mio website; all seems well so far.

Thanks for the update, dsrussell. I'll take your advice and check out the review of the 765 that you mentioned at gpsmagazine.com. It's too bad that the folks at Garmin didn't include this info about the 765 in their owners manual. Must have been an oversight on their end. Again,thanks a bunch!

I just ordered these: http://i-glassesonline.stores.yahoo.net/dlp3d-wireless-2set.html For $120 shipped with the emitter and 2 pairs of glasses, I've read on other sites that the Mits converts the 3D from the PS3 to the checkboard 3D tech the Mits supports. Not sure how well it's all going to work, but they look like they're pretty open to returns if people aren't satisfied, and for a little over $100, it's a pretty minimal investment.

A. Vargas- yeah, when I use the "soft" off and turn it back on, it reconnects with my chocolate phone and allows calls to be made through the Mio. Weird. Problem solved, albeit through some bug. Hopefully, it will be addressed in firmware updates. I agree you on the 2.5mm jack- why in the world did they choose 2.5 instead of 3.5? And yes, the volume is a little too low for my taste. I added an aux-in to my factory headunit, and whenever I switch from the GPS to my regular stereo, the volume difference always bugs me. Otherwise, a good and useful toy. If you want to charge the Mio through the mount, you can purchase the optional power cradle. A.

I have the same questions. Based on the reviews I have already placed the order for 540TM but in tom tom website, they show price of 550 TM much higher than 540 TM model (without any significant change of features) while in Amazon they are available at the same price of 129$. I suspect 550 TM is new and even in Amazon, they don't mention anywhere that 550 TM is a newer version of 540. The reviews of 550 are very less as it is newer in the market from buyers who may be using tom tom for the first time. If there is any + features introduced in 550TM, I would like to certainly get that one.

Interesting, as I was thinking of purchasing. Is there an option to add POI's as in some other systems?

I say trash it. It is a terrible model anyways. Gives terrible directions. I previously owned a tom tom. It was much much better.

I was looking for and couldn't find a nextar P3 review either, but I ended up buying it anyway and I posted the review last night--just search the nextar P3 on amazon and it should be posted by now. Basically I think it's a great unit, but I've never owned a tom tom so I can't compare to that specifically. The nextar was super easy to setup and figure out as well.
