The editorial covers hardware and software issues and gives the Spirit 500 the following verdict:” Overall, the Mio impressed way beyond my initial thoughts. It really does hammer home the ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’! This device has certainly converted me when it comes to the decision between a good old paper map or a GPS Satellite Navigation System Now I’d just love to try out the live traffic function. I would give the Mio an impressive 4.5 out of 5. I absolutely loved it and I don’t want to be without one now!”
