My comment with Garmin Nuvi's (and I own the 660) is the map data is outdated. Matter of fact, I just spent $70 to get the 2008 map DVD and it STILL lists a interstate as missing its onramps; these were finished over 2 years ago! I also notice that latency is still an issue. I'm also peeved they want a subscription (more $) for traffic info. My wifi-phone get's that info free. Frankly, the best GPS I've seen is Acura's in car model.

Amen brother. And the POI DB is also horribly outdated. You cannot believe how many times I've driven to a location only to find... well, nothing.
