CES 2008 Mio shows dual sided GPS phone and eats Navman

Man, it took some serious map consulting to find Mio’s booth buried at the back of the south hall, level 2. Surrounded by fake iPods, cell phone holsters etc. one has to wonder, just how late did they make their CES reservations; or did they have something to hide?

One thing they were not hiding (just not giving any details out on) is this beauty: a dual sided GPS phone. Most likely to arrive in Europe later this year, Mio believes this phone is a good extension of their core capabilities and will bring more consumers into the the loyal Mio following. A Mio spokesperson declined to take it out of the case to let me fingerprint it up. Rats. Another image is
