I believe that MIO has missed the plot. At least for SA. The maps are way behind the other GPS's and the responsivness of the cpu is very poor. Have to wait sometimes up to 30sec before it respond. To my amazement I only found that you are unable to enter co-ordinates into the GPS. Wow I expecected this te be std on any GPS. THe software also seems to be lacking in taking into account when you are leaving the recommeded route. At first I thought is was because of the 2 sec update frequency with the satelites but when I was leaving the highway onto an offramp it only re-directed after I was approx 50m away from the highway. (this while I was traveling at a crawling speed because of trafic I cannot give you an answer but have purchased the more expensive model and I’m not satisfied.
