Mio Technology

Mio Technology Corporation (Chinese: 宇達電通股份有限公司), a subsidiary of MiTAC International Corporation, is a Taiwanese electronics maker that manufactures and markets pocket PCs, personal digital assistants (PDAs), smartphones and personal navigation devices (PNDs). It sells products under the "Navman" and "Mio" brands.

Mio Technology currently has operations in Taiwan, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. Mio Technology is among the world's top three personal navigation device vendors, which also includes TomTom International BV and Garmin Ltd.[citation needed] Currently they make car and bicycle navigation units and dashboard cameras.

Several Mio DigiWalker (C720t, C520 and C320) and Mio Moov (A470, A430, 370, 360 and 300) devices include traffic message channel (TMC).

The new range is the Mio Moov and the Mio Moov Spirit.

There were variants produced for spot deals and limited runs.

This model was one of the most popular Mio-branded products, since at its launch in 2006 it was one of the few on the market that combined GPS functions with a GSM phone.

The C720t is a cumulative development on previous models of Mio Technology. This model has a 2-mega-pixel camera allowing the user to create their own points of interest (POI). The camera takes the picture of the destination and navigates back to it when needed. This camera also has business card recognition software, which detects the card and stores its information in the contacts folder of the device.

Besides the new camera, the C720t comes complete with full media powers (pictures, video, and music), as well as Bluetooth capabilities. Mio provides for over 12 million POI's, more than any other companies at this time (October 2007). Available with this is the Traffic Messaging Channel (TMC) which detects and notifies upcoming traffic and helps the driver navigate around it.
