The stand-alone GPS market is getting incredibly competitive and Mio isn’t resting on their freshly acquired laurels. The Mio C620 will feature limited 3G graphics to display terrain elevation and landmarks, thanks to the new MioMap 2008 software.

The Mio DigiWalker C720t is a touchscreen handheld GPS that will show you a map of where you are on its respectable 4.3 inch widescreen — providing you’re somewhere in North America. It does everything a good GPS should, coming with text-to-speech directions, trip planning and real-time traffic updates. Sounds pretty complete for a device you can slip into your pocket, right? Well, that’s just where it starts.
