Even on the 550, the lack of screen vertically was more of a problem...adding to the width of the screen does not help me as much...



Even though I am an old map reader, the above makes a lot of sense.  550 is still a more attractive unit with more features.  Was holding out for a newer version but so far doesn't look worth the wait.   :(

I guess on SEUC the lack of XM is no biggie, but I was hoping for a better weather solution.... :smilie_daumenneg:

The best weather solution to date is the GPSMAP478. Real time NEXRAD weather superimposed on the map. Just ask Duane.

new multiple routing feature that will give you a preview of the shortest, fastest, and off road route so you can choose from one of three options


I've been able to do that for over 4 years with the 27x -478 series

Looking at that it seems to me that because of the larger screen and higher resolution, one should be able to see a significantly larger portion of the map with more zoom comfort as well. The only thing missing is XM.

Ride safely,

Maybe this is the first in a Zumo replacement line, like a 670 or 680 or whatever, that will have the XM and Traffic/Weather for $1100 or more, which is even more than they get for the 550!!! ;)

Yea, they will come up with a model notched up from the 660 as you state. I just hope they give you the option to choose either XM or Sirius when they do. Or they may be holding off to offer something more in line with the new programing based on the merger.  :nixweiss:
