Here’s a video demo and garmin nuvi 660 review that really shows you everything you need to know and everything that this travel assistant has to offer. With the extra bright widescreen, mp3 player, and Bluetooth technology I’m sure you’ll love your Nuvi as much as Larry does.
This is a great video that shows you everything you wanted to know about the Nuvi 660. Larry seems to love his new toy so much he wants to share it with the world, which is understandable because it really is an awesome new toy.
The antenna is nice and small, it flips up when you’re using the Nuvi and then you can flip it back down so it’s not so bulky and there’s less chance of it snapping off in your pocket or something. This really shows just how easy it is to clip the Nuvi 660 to the windshield suction mount. It slides right on with no problem so you’ll never feel you have to leave your Nuvi660 in clear view even if you’re just leaving your car for a minute.
Larry shows us a few of the handy extra features like the MP3 player. He has obviously used his USB cord to load up some of his favorite songs from his computer and has them saved right into the unit’s internal storage. Don’t forget you can load up a SD memory card with songs and pop it in the SD card slot whenever you want to listen to them. The same can be said for pictures. The picture slideshow is a nice feature if you want to show off say a trip to your family and friends while you’re driving. The currency converter is nice but you have to manually update the exchange rates. I’m not sure how else they could do this, maybe have it updateable from the website but that would almost be more hassle than just updating the ones you use by yourself. Maybe in the future they’ll find a way to have it updated via satellite in real time but until then this works just fine. Unfortunately Larry doesn’t have a Bluetooth capable phone so he can’t show us the Bluetooth technology but I’ve used it myself and it works great. My phone also does voice dialing and the unit can use this feature too.
The Nuvi 660 can go through a couple different voices and speaks a bunch of different languages. Larry likes the Aussie girl, so do I. There’s a few different accents on there you can check out. Sometimes if one is butchering all the street names in an area you can switch the voice or the language so it sounds right.
The Navteq maps are huge. It’s crazy how committed this company is to mapping our planet. They have all kinds of points of interest included like places to eat that can be sorted by the type of food they serve and places to park that can be sorted by distance from current location.
Larry shows us how truly customizable the Garmin 660 is. You can choose your vehicle type through the list with options like car, pedestrian, bicycle, truck, or bus. You can also choose through a list of things to avoid with options like traffic(the FM transmitter can receive traffic information and help you avoid it), U-turns(the Nuvi 660 will recalculate your route if you make a wrong turn instead of telling you to get back on the old track), highways, unpaved roads, toll roads, and ferries.
