Belgian technology firm Mio Technology has launched the C210 Sat Nav system. It''s got all the basic navigation features you need at very competitive £199.

Let''S be honest, do you really need a multi-lingual voice translator when you''re lost in Bristol?

This GPS receiver features a 400 MHz processor, a clear and crisp but not large 2.7-inch screen and an SD slot for data storage.

Unlike some other Sat Nav systems, it uses seven digit postcode recognition rather than the usual six digits. This means it can locate an address to within a few metres. If you use six digits, you only cover a number of streets.

You can buy an optional Traffic Messaging Channel (TMC) antenna and, with this plugged in, the C210 can receive live updates of traffic problems and hotspots, planning new routes if required.

There''s a safety camera database alerting drivers of camera locations with the ability to add new cameras (there''s a free database update for one year).

It runs on four AA batteries, which provide over 4.5 hours of navigation on foot with the backlight on and GPS function at full power. An in-car charger provides power when on the road.
