MIO PDA GPS: Your Personal Guide Through Life

GPS navigation is one of the greatest information technologies to come our way, even in this age of amazingly accessible information. Global positioning technologies are used in conjunction with many types of automated equipment, and when integrated with maps and good software, they can tell you where you are at any given time. The Mio PDA was the first handheld computer to fully integrate global positioning hardware into its basic computing unit. Running on a Windows Mobile OS, the relatively inexpensive MIO PDA GPS is incredibly light and offers not just global positioning, but all the capabilities common to most handheld computers.

The MIO has a good processor with reasonable processor speed, as well as a good supply of both processing and permanent memory. As with other handheld computers, you can use it for a variety of basic computing tasks like word processing, spreadsheets, game playing, Internet access, wireless computing, photography, playing music, and cell phone use. The biggest difference is this handheld computer is designed primarily for finding your way around. A single hot key can switch you back and forth between regular computing and navigation screens. This makes it easy to multi-task as you find your way around the big city, or to answer emails while navigating your way up mountain trails.

When you choose a MIO as your primary portable PC, you'll have all the best features of handheld devices. With a few PDA accessories, like folding keyboards, good carrying cases, and extra batteries, you'll find you don't need any other portable devices beyond this one. And with a careful choice of software, you can maximize all the potentials of your pocket computer. When you purchase a handheld computer enabled with global location technology, you're investing in living.
