Mio just released a new gadget that might be too awesome for your car. At a whopping $599, the Mio C720 GPS unit is their most expensive yet. Along with the standard GPS features we’ve seen from previous models such as an external antennae, speaker for voice guidance, mp3 player, and headphone connector, this one also has a 2.0 megapixel camera and Bluetooth. The camera allows you to geotag photos taken by the GPS, meaning you can embed GPS coordinates into picture files. Another change is that the expansion slot accepts SD cards as well as MMC cards. Besides this, the C720 also has a business card scanner so you can easily import your contact information. Are all these features in a GPS unit really necessary?
