Amazon.com Product Description
With a gorgeous widescreen display, the Garmin nuevi 660 GPS Personal Travel Assistant is your answer to the call of adventure.

This map database features nearly six million points of interest (POIs), including hotels, restaurants, gas stations, ATMs, and attractions, and the data is provided by NAVTEQ, a world leader in premium-quality mapping.This preloaded navigator brings all this fantastic map data to your fingertips with a super-bright, 4.3-inch widescreen display for improved map viewing, day or night. Use the touch screen interface to select destinations, look up POIs, and play your favorite MP3s and audio books. The display also helps you control hands-free calling, traffic alerts, and the FM transmitter, all from the screen of your personal travel assistant.

and a 4.3-inch diagonal widescreen
4.3-inch screen
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 nuevi 660's wireless FM transmitter. Tune your car's radio to the appropriate station and you'll hear all the nuevi's audio, including voice prompts, MP3s, audio books, and more, directly through your vehicle's stereo system. The nuevi 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 nuevi 660 a complete Personal Travel Assistant.

First Rate Map Data
The nuevi 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 nuevi 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 nuevi 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 nuevi 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 nuevi'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

TMC traffic service coverage map
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. All you have to do is simply touch the screen to view traffic details and you'll be ready to detour around any problem area. And if you end up missing a turn, or you're forced into a detour that is not relayed through the traffic receiver, the nuevi's sophisticated automatic routing will get you back on track in no time.

In most areas, TMC Clear Channel traffic broadcasts are continuous — there's no waiting for scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts. Because traffic broadcasts are received via a "silent" FM data channel, you can still listen to music or news programming on your car radio without interference from incoming FM traffic data transmissions.

A 3-month subscription to TMC Clear Channel's Total Traffic Network is included with purchase of this device. For more information on subscription fees, coverage in individual cities, and traffic data networks in the United Kingdom and Europe, check the Garmin website.


Easy To Use Interface
Garmin's interface is a key to their success and one of the things that makes their devices such a pleasure to use. Simple controls and sub-screens make it easy to enter or search for destinations and get data about your trip.

Garmin's own navigation is easy to use

Beyond Navigation

Navigation is just the beginning.

It also comes with Garmin Lock, an anti-theft feature, and configurable vehicle icons that let you select car-shaped graphics to show your location on the map.

5 out of 5 stars garmin nuvi 660   August 30, 2008
Mary V. Terrell (Phoenix, AZ)
have had other gps units in the past, like this one the best so far; has been accurate, & I just love being able to choose the voice & accent for voice prompts!


4 out of 5 stars Works Well   August 29, 2008
R. Mahaffey (Georgia)
I really enjoy this Garmin. I do need to update the info. as I have gone to locations that no longer exist.


5 out of 5 stars I endorse the "Garmin nuvi 660"...   August 29, 2008
C. Lynch II (Long Beach,CA)
The 660 has a great 4"+ screen and the bluetooth feature that we in [CA] need for hands free driving and talking. The sound/speaker on the unit works well when talking and utilizes a FM transmitter works good too. I personally do not like the Traffic feature which is not technically Garmin but an outside provider. You will get three months free but I will not renew it.


5 out of 5 stars FAST AND ACCURATE   August 29, 2008
Gustavo A. Baez (VENEZUELA)
QUITE GLAD!!! Was shipped and delivered as promised... I havent' had the time to use it as much as I desire, but is very nice-looking, wider screen than the StreetPilot I had, faster and more accurate.
I'm very happy with this Nuvi, should I say, so far....



4 out of 5 stars A few small pros and cons.   August 29, 2008
Coppet (Los Angeles)
The Nuvi 660 is fast, easy to use right out of the box, and the large screen is easy to navigate and enter addresses onto. I didn't realize how much easier until I used the smaller Nuvi 240 in another vehicle. The wider spacing of letter 'keys' is a nice improvement for big fingers.

The traffic indicators are helpful, but alternate routes don't make much sense if you already are on the route optimized for shortest time. These work right out of the box.

Also, when there is a traffic alert, you can't touch the lower right turn area to step through the upcoming turns. It defaults to the traffic map (only north oriented). It would be helpful to see the planned turns instead of going to this map.

The unit is very easy to unhook from the mounting caddy.

Occasionally it tries to couple with a phone in another vehicle and asks for permission to do so. A password is needed for this.

Lots of features I'll never use are included.
