Mio C310 GPS Update

Dec 5, 06 10:31 AM PDT


Mio C310 Update

We received the news (and the test unit) that the Mio C310 (read review) got a software update and now uses the same mapping application than the sexy Mio H610 (read review) thus solving the H610 weak point: the small display (2.2”). Now users can enjoy all the functionalities of a Mio H610 on a 3.5” screen – I love it.

I have been told that all Mio C310 models currently sold have the new software and we verified by checking a unit freshly ordered by a friend.

Update 5/29: you might be interested by the Mio C220. It delivers the same experience for a much cheaper price.

We purchased the Mio c310 about a year ago and enjoy the simplicity of use. However we need updated software and it is diffuicult to find. We are just about ready to take our business else where.

I purchased a mio c310, I am happy with the purchase. I have friends with the Tom Tom, and Magelin, which are good units, but I think the mio is a better buy, and works as well if not better. I want updates, A.S.A,P. This is the only area mio is lacking. If anyone has any info, please email me at 55hill@comcast.net Thanks

I just bought my C310x yesterday for $199.00 at Circuit City. They guy told me that it compared to the Tom Tom that was selling for $450.00 other than the voice street recognition.

I was totally BLOWN away when I installed it in my SUV. For that price I expected some cheap thing so I can get around town here in Texas. I didnt expect to get the best GPS system for the price on the market. Not only that, but with my SD extention to my Mini SD Memory 2gig card and my FM Transmitter, I now can jam out to my MP3's in the car.

Best buy I have made all year! (Oh, and it has a GPS in it also..) lol

Anyhow..

The H610 includes an application disk not included with my C310X.

Normally, the C310x should have all the software features of the H610. If you really need the info, I could dig in my boxes and check.

Steve, I don't think that the (street) price is too high. It's actually one of the most affordable GPS unit.

It's true that there are no map updates for now.

I spent approx.a total of 2hrs.on hold waiting a response from technical service (telephone) left a message-no response in 2 days.Could it be a hoax on their part that they have this service?

Found it at Staples/Bureau en gros in Sherbrooke for $229.00 Canadian rep price $429.00.

Very intuitive and convivial.

Incomparable price/quality ratio for a 20 channel SIRF III dased chipset unit.

I also ave a Garmin Geko 201

bsbv7, Look at the map and user interface. If it looks like the photo above, then it's the new software.

Hi there.... I just got the Mio c310 for Christmas. How do know if I got the updated version? My maps on it were dated Sept/06.

According to Mio, all units currently sold have the latest software. A couple of people that I know ordered it last week and got the new software.

For previous versions, the update mechanism is still in the works at Mio...

Hope this helps.

How do I know it has the latest software? If not, where can I download the update? The links on the web page don't seem to work.
