HI! I just bought the MIO A701 and I'm in the U.S. I am completely confused! How do I get GPS on it? I have to buy the system and then install it? Can someone please help? Also, how do I use my MP3'S for ringtones?
THANKS :)

        Its a sweet phone and with MioMaps, it works as the best PDA phone. As we use more & more, we started loving it more & more.. Works fine with a wi-fi card for wireless connection. Connection was not good when using Skype on wi-Fi... Anybody used skype on it ?

          This is the best and reliable PDA that i ever use. Battery support is good, for heavy use buy the 2nd battery. GPS accurate install with tomtom or mio map it self. package incl all the things i need in the car. I dont have problem with synch with laptop (Win XP home edition)

                Hi,

                I wanted to get the MIO A701 but was told that I have to wait because appararently there is a "new" batch coming in Mid October. Is this the upgrade version, sorting out some of the problems (e.g. com port, voice problems, GPS, etc.) which I read from the email correspondences posted on this site?
                There's not a lot mention about A701 as a PDA, its capability in Word, Excel and Outlook.
                Any thoughts to share on the above subjects is much appreciated. Thank you.

                      Yes, you can have a phone call with the GPS functionality active.

                      I personally use mapopolis. When a call comes through, it covers the bottom portion of the screen, you can click answer or reject call. When you answer the call, it brings it full screen, until you are done. Once you are finished with the call, you close the phone app, and press your GPS hotkey, if you configured it, and no issues, back to normal.

                                        TomTom works great on this Phone. It just saved my cat's life two days ago by finding the nearest vet and their phone #. I'm looking at this phone, and think to myself. It only has to work once, and worth every pennies I spent on this device.
