GPS: Mio C230 or Garmin Nuvi 200? Which one should I choose?I'm on shopping for a cheap and good GPS device. After some research, I found that both Mio C230 and Garmin Nuvi 200 have many good reviews and affordable for my pocket, but don't know which one I should buy. Please help me to pick. Or if you know any better GPS device that have about those's price, please recommend me.

P.S.: Someone says that Mio C230 can be hacked to have many features and new updated maps. Can I also update new maps for the Garmin without any charge? Thank you

A few weeks ago I got the Nuvi 200 from, "Best Buy"....the sales guy there actually talked me down from a pricier one (Tomtom--said alot get returned)--said most employees there have Garmins. I'm (& my boyfriend who is Mr. Anti-technology) really impressed by it. The other day, we were about 1-1/2 hours south from where we live and he wanted barbeque food. I punched the "food" button and it pulls up about 15 different restaurant types. I hit "barbeque" and it pulled up a load of those, starting from the closest, with an arrow of direction, and the miles. You touch the one you want and it give the address and phone no. You can also pull up ATM's, hospitals, gas stations shopping (broken into types), etc.... It's amazing. There's so many different things you can do with it.....I love it.

I don't know anything about the Mio, but am totally impressed by the Nuvi. They had a really nice case for around $ 20 it just slips into. The only thing you would need if you want is a charger to bring it into the house...it has the car one included.
