I am not sure if I am going to keep it or not but definitely a good deal or is it? I see so many other products now for the same price or fore $50 more you get a larger screen and bluetooth.

Really? What $200 GPS has bluetooth?

I paid $246 for mine from CompUSA and then the Rebate will come through so I am looking at pre-rebate cost. I have seen some for $299 - $329 with bluetooth.

sorry for the stupid question, but why would you want bluetooth in a GPS?
(I found this forum on Google, so if I'm out of touch, please forgive me...)

Thanks!

I am not an expert on this but one of the things you can do with bluetooth is to pair the GPS with your cell phone. this allows you to answer the call, and use GPS's speaker to communicate. there are others things possible, but someone with more knowledge may answer your questions.

Anybody here knows the difference beween this Mio and BF BestBuy deal at $279 for Magellan 2000 ?

Which one is better?

I've already done it to mine.

I tried the hack but I can not find Utils folder under My Flash disk.
What Version of the MioMap you have.
I have Version 3.2 instead of V3 show on the site(I think this is the problem)

Any body have this problem?

I have 3.2 of the MioMap, but I did not have the issue with no utils folder. When you run the "Unlock-C510-Mioskins.cab from the \\My Flash Disk\\Miomap\\Miomap directory, you should get a popup asking where to install. Look at the bottom of page 6 of the French PDF install file included in the zip. I know it's French, but it gives screenshots. You will see where it asks you where to install and it shows \\My Flash Disk\\Utils. Do you remember seeing this step? If so, you needed to make sure you hit ENTER on the virtual keyboard.

Thank You It work now

I have to create that folder first in Mio window explorer in order to work. It won't work if I create the folder in Window explorer. strange

hehe you'll have to pirate the maps somewhere else. You just have to search harder.

I am thinking people got confused with gps standalone unit vs gps receiver.
for a gps receiver, bluetooth is a key point; for a gps standalone unit(like this one), what are you going to use bluetooth?
why do not you ask your dash cd player have a bluetooth? and your tv, your dvd.... to have?

i'm novice to handhelds and Win CE. i just got my C310x wanted to hack it. Could some one please provide the detailed on steps on how to do it. I've installed ActiveSync on my laptop, and connected C310 to it via USB. Somehow ActiveSync doesn't recognize the device. Also installed the Mio Transfer software from the installation DVD. So far haven't changed anything on C310, nor able to access the file system on it. appreciate your help. Also i don't have SD card in handy. So the only way i could proceed i guess is by connecting device directly to laptop.

Setup a thread in Deal Discussion or Computers? For sure you should be heading to the www.gpspassion.com forums to discuss your Mio's there.

I have a GPS software(for Win CE, but I don't know for which version) coming with Dell GPS which using bluetooth, do you think it can be used one c310x?

Circuit City has them back in stock I got an email from them.
