For many people, TomTom is almost a synonym for GPS.  Their products are excellent, and we often single them out for praise on the site--but that doesn't mean there's no competition. 

Indeed, there are some very strong contenders at the moment, including our selection from Mio, one of the top three producers of GPS systems.

The Mio Moov Spirit Flat hopes to win consumers over with an ultra-flat design and yet more new features.  It's an incredibly stylish offering with a 4.7'' touch screen.

The Mio Moov Spirit V505 TV, as you might have guessed, has a 5'' screen and also includes a TV tuner.  It's a good hybrid and can entertain the kids while you drive--after all, once you're on the motorway, you don't necessarily need your GPS to tell you to keep going in a straight line for the next three hundred miles.

The Mio Moov Spirit V735 TV is based on the same principle, but has a colossal 7'' screen, and offers a more complete range of multimedia features with access to photos, audio and video.
