New kid on the block, Zumo 220

[Cloggy]

I know it's old news now but there is a new Zumo out, the zumo 220, It's cheaper than the 660 but it has less features, although it seems to have everything necessary to do the job.

Has anyone heard about them or even seen one?

I haven't seen one myself, but it got good reviews in magazines and newspapers here in Norway.

The conclusion is that the navigation is good, there are no problems operating it with gloves, the sound in bluetooth headsets is OK, quick route calculation/recalculation. The only question mark is the screen visibility in bright sunlight (wasn't tested). All in all a good product, but a little on the expensive side here in Norway. There is only a 10% price difference between the 220 (MSRP) and a discounted 660 (again, here in Norway).

I have the Zumo 220 for one week now, and really like it. Mounting it was just a matter of minutes. The battery can last for up to 7 hours (!) even an hour more if you disable Bluetooth. The best thing for me is setting up nice routes on the pc and then transfer them to the Zumo, really cool.
