The Mio 269 Handheld GPS was announced a while ago, but is just now becoming available.

Th 269 is marketed mainly as “All of Western Europe, fitting neatly in your pocket “. Technologically, its a 3½ in QVGA with a 2½ GB Hard Disk Drive and a SiRFStarII high-performance GPS core running on Windows CE 4.2. With its built-in MP3 player it looks good for traipsing around Europe.

Competes with the same arena as the more-expensive auto-oriented Magellan RoadMate 700 with its 10GB hdd intended for the North American market. , or perhaps the hand-held Garmin Quest.
