Mr Fawlty
After doing all the research possible I bought the Mio 520. Partly due to Mike Hardings findings on the 220 and partly because I got the 520 for $387......
Seems to have all I want and has an "Off road" capability yet to be tried, will report on that after I have a chance to get into the Brindabellas onto some of the fire
trails.
I did look at all the others, Tom Tom seemed the best of a very good bunch but Mio won simply because a) I like the voice and b) the guy at JB Hi Fi gave me an outstanding price....It works inside and somehow knows where I live...
Casual Skirt is catered for with the Mi Mi club and several sex shops in Fyshwick being noted as POI's... What more could a man want?
Even has a "dog walk" mode but as the dog is of Teutonic
heritage I'd have to switch it to German so the Dog could follow instructions.... 'You vill cocken ze leggen in 20metres"....
All to much but I thought I'd let you all know....

Nice one Fawlty - especially at $387!
Cnet gives it a good write-up:
Mio C520
It will have mapping at least as good as my C220 and, given that the C220 is a road GPS, I've been impressed with its off road track data.
>It works inside and somehow knows where I live...
Eeemmmm... they are watching you Fawlty :)
>Casual Skirt is catered for with the Mi Mi club
Sounds like a good place for us to catch up for that G&T? :)
Let us know how you go with it, please.
