Which nA vi is Best for You?: Click here to see a quick, simple comparison of features for all Garmin nuvi GPS navigators Wider screen lets you see more of what's around. Compare these actual size views of a 3-inch (diagonal) screen  and a 4.3-inch diagonal widescreen  | Widescreen -- See Better, See More The widescreen format gives you 70% more actual screen area than a 3.5-inch screen. Primarily this translates into a better view of the area through which you are driving. This is especially useful in showing you what parks, restaurants, ATM, gas stations, etc. are nearby, or in letting you know whether a detour is a good idea. Also, the device itself is larger, meaning controls on the screen are more widely spaced and somewhat easier to push. FM Transmitter -- Hear Better, Hear More Instead of straining your ears to hear turn-by-turn directions or your favorite MP3s, you can enjoy wireless FM audio transmission via the nA vi 660's wireless FM transmitter. Tune your car's radio to the appropriate station and you'll hear all the nA vi's audio, including voice prompts, MP3s, audio books, and more, directly through your vehicle's stereo system. The nA vi 660 includes many "must-have" entertainment and travel tools, including digital music and audio book playback, JPEG picture viewer, currency converters, and more. All these great features make the nA vi 660 a complete Personal Travel Assistant. First Rate Map Data The nA vi 660 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator NT street maps, including a hefty POI database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nA vi takes you there with 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions. Garmin gets its map data from NAVTEQ, a world leader in premium-quality mapping. In addition, the nA vi 660 accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs Important note about map updates: Due to our high volume of sales, almost every Garmin portable GPS navigator sold by Amazon.com will come with the most recent map version. If you ever do need a map update, you can purchase one from Amazon.com at our Garmin Store. Hands-Free Calling In more and more places, it is becoming illegal to use cell phones while driving without a hands-free kit. The nA vi 660's Bluetooth capability, microphone and speaker lets match it to any bluetooth-capable phone to make hands-free mobile phone calls. Simply dial the phone number with the nA vi's touch screen keypad to make a call on a compatible phone. To answer an incoming call, just tap the screen and speak into the built-in microphone. Making and taking calls on the road has never been easier, or safer. In addition, Garmin makes it a breeze to look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or even tap into your cell phone's call history log. Integrated FM Traffic Receiver

| Steer clear of traffic with an integrated FM traffic receiver designed to receive alerts from TMC Clear Channel about traffic tie-ups and road construction that might lie ahead on your route.

Garmin is number 1 January 8, 2009 opabehr (Fairburn, Georgia) This is my second Garmin, previously had a 350 nuvi which was passed to my son in law. The 660 is awesome in my opinion, recently used it on an 800 mile trip and it helped to avoid traffic hangups and gave us excellent directions.
Garmin 660 January 7, 2009 Ron G. I really like this product. It works great and has helped me locate a lot of addresses with little problems. I would have rated it a five but it sometimes doesn't have roads or buildings in it's memory that have been in existance for years. At the time of purchase it was also a little pricy.
I no longer have to be a human tom-tom January 7, 2009 Troy D. Gottfried (Columbus, OH) I'm reviewing this from the perspective of having bought it as a gift for my wife. She absolutely loves it and uses it ALL THE TIME. She isn't really bad with directions, but finds herself in many situations where she needs to go places she's never been. Then, I would get a phone call and have to look up the directions online from her current location and walk her through how to get there. This thing is awesome. She has yet to go somewhere that it can't find perfectly: And this includes new subdivisions and oddly-organized condo communities. So, for me, I love it. The only negative thing I would add is that the bluetooth apparently doesn't sound that good from the other side. No one who she has talked to with it has been that impressed, and she needs to repeat things when using it. But other than that, it is a steal since it is discontinued by Garmin (BTW: That doesn't mean obsolete).
love the nuvi 660!!! January 2, 2009 A. Phipps (California, Planet Earth) got this nuvi for my girlfriend as a christmas gift. it was taken out of the box and within 5 minutes we were navigating (pun intended) through the menus and various set ups. it's very easy to use. in fact, we got the same unit for my mom and SHE was even able to use it right out of the box. we love it! i might even get a unit for my car and use.
Nice GPS December 26, 2008 J. Hall (Winston Salem, NC United States) I looked at a few GPS navigators before chosing the Nuvi 660. I am glad I got the larger screen and found it easy to use, this is the first GPS I have used. My phone connection with the Nuvi was easy, but the volume of the calls received was lower than I had hoped. I actually disconnected the bluetooth and opted to use the handset during the first call. It was a little better with the second call, but not as good as I had hoped. Overall I am pleased with this purchase.
