Garmin has posted version 2.60 firmware for the nuvi 660. I've downloaded and installed it, and all appears well. I know some of you had experienced problems with the previous update (stuttering voice prompts), but this one looks pretty solid. Seems like a fairly significant update -- a lot of bugs are fixed, so I'd recommend installing it. Only available via Garmin's WebUpdater application. More information available on Garmin's site.
