 Garmin nuvi 660- Makes driving easier!, 2008-10-10
Found this GPS easy to use on first trip! Didn't spend much time at all learning the menu and navigating through all the available information it provides. Easy to mount on windshield with included suction mount. The screen is big enough to see clearly even if mounted on passenger side of vehicle. Has a day or night screen setting that is very helpful. We found most helpful the voice announcement of "keep left or keep right" and countdown in miles and then feet to a turn. Easily recalculates if you deviate from the original route. This little GPS takes a lot of the stress out of driving on unfamiliar roads!
 GARMIN NUVI 660, 2008-10-09
The Garmin Nuvi 660 is an excellent GPS. The maps are very clear and you voice is easy to recognize what is being said. We use it all over the NY City area including Westchester,Rockland and parts of New Jersey without any problems.
I would recommend it over any other company's GPS!
Does Everything Except Drive The Car, 2008-10-08
This device has empowered me. I no longer have to fear getting lost is a strange neighborhood or finding my way back home. Mine came with 2008 maps but I registered on the Garmin site and downloaded the 2009 maps without a problem. I also updated the firmware using Garmin's "WebUpdater." I did have an issue with Garmin's POI loader software "seeing" the Nuvi (strange, since the WebUpdater found it with no problem and I could access the drive through MY Computer), but I just downloaded POIs onto an SD card and that solved that.
It's the perfect size, the volume is great, even the FM Transmitter works great for me and the bluetooth IS worth it. It connects so quick, has great range, and the speaker really is quite good. I tried it through the FM transmitter and that was surprisingly good. Very happy with this model.
I do have one concern: the plastic frame at the bottom of the screen is slightly bowed and not flush with the screen. It's very slight, but I'm unsure if this is a common defect. It works great, and I've already invested a couple of hours in updated it, so I don't know if it's worth it to get it replaced.
The box, when delivered from Amazon, was not in any shrink-wrap (which may be how they are delivered) and there is a blue sticker on the top with some letters and a bar code. I know Amazon only sells new, but wonder about the sticker. I did call Amazon and was assured they only sell new. Anyone else notice their Nuvi's frame not completely flush with the glass or who remembers their delivery not having any shrink-wrap, please comment.
If you're thinking about buying -- do it. It really is worth it.
GPS A Winner!, 2008-10-06
Drove from Nebraska to Florida for the first time, came back through Atlanta, GA. The GPS was right on, except for new construction or hiways . . . always have an idea of where you want to go and major signs to ensure you are on the right road. If there has been new construction the GPS may get "confused" and have to "recalculate" a couple of times. But, just continue to follow instructions from the GPS and you will get back on track as soon as the program can find the road nearest you.
Especially good when in high density traffic with multiple lanes. The "voice" tells you early enough to "stay right", "turn in .2 mile", "Exit number 2A on the right" and such various other helps BEFORE you have gone by the turn.
Correct addresses of destinations are a must for the best efficiency. We had never been in Atlanta and drove right up to the house of our friends with no stress of wrong turns.
I recommend this GPS, though there are cheaper (less bells and whistles) and more expensive models. This is a great mid priced GPS.
Great navigator!, 2008-10-05
After having a GPS stolen from my car, I love the portability of this one. I just slip it in my purse and go. The wide screen is great and I have not had any problems with it. I have not tried the blue tooth function yet. My only complaint would be it can sometimes be a little bit slow acquiring satellites. All-in-all I think it is great.
