I have been lusting after the Garmin Nuvi 660 GPS since the unit became available (early last year) but the $1000 price tag kept me at bay. With prices on the Nuvi 660 recently falling into the sub $700 range I finally broke down and purchased one. ...

Pros: Plantronics name, decent warranty, comfortable, quality sound

I bought the Garmin Nuvi 660 in the fall of 2006. I chose the 660 over the other models because my middle-aged eyes deserve a big screen to look at, and also because I couldn't afford the Mercedes that was wrapped around the GPS system that I used in ...

Pros: Great sound,lit LCD screen. slow to 25% with no loss of pitch, 'Loop' function*
Cons: Small LCD screen crammed with icons. FF and RW are slow-incremental.
