The device includes many entertainment and travel tools.
|
A 4.3-inch display with a touch screen interface makes it easy to select destinations, play MP3s, and more. |
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.
The nüvi 660, along with its counterparts, the nüvi 360 and nüvi 310, integrate Bluetooth wireless technology with a microphone and speaker that lets you make hands-free mobile phone calls. Simply dial the phone number with the nüvi'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.
The device comes ready to go with automatic routing, 3D or 2D map perspective viewing, and turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names. It also supports configurable vehicle icons. These fun, customized car-shaped icons come in a variety of colors to add a personal touch to your vehicle's position on the map. With this GPS system on board you'll be prepared to steer clear of traffic with the integrated FM TMC traffic receiver. The nüvi 660 is designed to receive alerts 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 nüvi's sophisticated automatic routing will get you back on track in no time.
Instead of straining your ears to hear turn-by-turn directions or your favorite MP3s, you can enjoy wireless FM audio transmission via the nüvi 660's wireless FM transmitter. Tune your car's radio to the appropriate station and you'll hear all the nüvi's audio, including voice prompts, MP3s, audio books, and more, directly through your vehicle's stereo system. The nüvi 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 nüvi 660 a complete Personal Travel Assistant.
Note: Optional software for language translation, detailed travel guides, and savings programs allow you to customize your nüvi to fit your travel needs. The FM transmitter feature is only available in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Lastly, the nüvi 660 comes with a free, three-month trial for the traffic services.

Garmin Nuvi 660.......2007-12-27
At sixty years old, I'm not technically savy. I was worried I would not be able to figure this out. It was surprisingly simple. The only thing I would change is the instruction manual. It is on a disk and I needed to make a copy of it. I then cut it down to a manageable size to have with me. You can't look up directions when you are a 1,000 miles from home if they are on a disk.
This is Fantastic!!.......2007-12-27
I got this for my husband for christmas and really just have to get one for myself now. It is so intuitive and functional, we didn't read any instructions but just started playing around with it and it works great. The text to speech function is a must have, I haven't hooked up the traffic function yet, that will be next. My husband drives great distances so I thought this would be very helpful for him, I usually remain fairly local, staying within our own county. But I had it in my bag to play around and figure out how to work it and it came in handy for me on day one: it was after 5 pm but I needed to get a business letter sent for delivery the next day, I started in my car from my work to go to a fedex location I know of via a highway, heard on the radio that traffic was terrible but the only other way I knew was really out of the way and much much longer and I didn't know what time the place closed. I didn't know the address, I just knew it was somewhere along a certain street. Pulled out the GPS, used my finger to drag the map to where the street was, zoomed in to around where I needed to be and set that area as the "where to?" It was dark and raining pretty hard so it would have been hard to follow written directions but good old Garmin took me through some back roads I didn't even know about with ease and I got to the place in good time and got the letter out. Just marvelous, we are going away this weekend and can hardly wait to use it and test the traffic feature. This was not cheap but its well worth it to have something that works so great, you'll use it every day even if you think you don't really need it.
4th Garmin Product.......2007-12-27
This is my 4th Garmin product. My first was a Garmin V, though it did a good job I found it slow to recalculate, the next ones were garmin 2610 and 2730, great products. I also have a Garmin c330 I use at work. This new Nuvi 660 has a ton of features, all of which work quite well. It would be nice to have the ability to avoid roads by tapping on written routes and a more powerful fm modulator. Other then that the unit is great. I got a great price from Amazon, quick delivery. Overall a great product for moving from car to car.
Garmin 660.......2007-12-27
Amazon had the best price anywhere. The product arrived as expected. Very satisfied with all the features.
Impressed but yet disappointed........2007-12-27
I am impressed with the abilities of the Garmin nuvi 660 am extremely disappointed that the device is not compatible is with my iMac computer. This fact should have been easily available before I made the purchase.

Do Not Drop !!!.......2007-12-27
My son dropped his new sansa e260 from a counter 3 feet high and it destroyed the screen. Sandisk told me that automatically voids the warranty and will not replace the unit. Also,You cannot buy a replacement screen for this product. I will look for a more durable replacement. Also It will not communicate with my computer that has older USB hardware using Win2k or Linux. It works great with Windows Vista and XP.
Great Deal.......2007-12-27
Great product for price. Had some difficulty downloading to device initially, but discovered that under MY COMPUTER it was necessary to open by right clicking and selecting OPEN AS PORTABLE DEVICE. Have not fully figured out how to us picture feature yet. Software take some effort to understand. Not as quick and easy as IPOD, but for price it is acceptable. Radio works great. Great buy.
very pleased.......2007-12-26
I bought this MP3 player for my 11 yr old son for Christmas. It is very easy to use and my son already has the hang of it (1 day). The sound is fantastic on the hearphones included. We had one problem at first. I dont know what happened but it turned on and worked for a few minutes and then went off. I tryed everything, even trying to charge it thinking the batt died. Apparently, it needed to be reset by holding down the on/off button for 15 seconds. After that, it worked great. I almost sent it back! Also, we have downloaded music from our computer as well as the internet and it was very easy. I would have given this unit 5 stars but it is worth noting that it is harder to find a charging dock and speaker set for this unit then it is an Ipod. I found one but the choices are very limited. Ipod has a million choices. That is the only con so far we have found.
Not very user friendly.......2007-12-26
I wanted an MP3 player that was easy to use as I am lacking some of the sophicated skills required for some of the newer electronic gadgets. This Sandisk MP3 player did not want to help me connect and navigate my Vista system. I called the company and they were useless and the suggestions offered did not answer my questions. A subsequent e-mail only sent me to a discussion group that didn't even address my concern about compatability between the MP3 player and Vista. Nowhere in the instructions were there any references to Vista. I ended up sending the player to my grandson for Christmas and with his Windows XP he was able
to use it. I can't be the only user out there with a Vista system and this player. Hopefully the company will address this problem and be able to offer valid responses and or "fixes" to the questions of their customer's that recieved this product for Christmas.
Fantastic MP3 player.......2007-12-26
Bought this for myself a year or more ago, and I LOVE it. I liked it so much that I got one for my 17 year old son for Christmas this year. It does music, photos, videos, voice recordings and plays the radio. Quality is great. Easy to use. Sound and visuals are superb. One complaint is the goofy ear buds, but they all use those these days. My son uses his player with regular over the ear headphones, and they work great, too. I chose this model over the Ipod, and I'm glad I did. The versatility on this one and value for the price are great. This is compatible with all music software - we use winamp, but it also works with windows media player, etc. I wasn't crazy about Rhapsody - the software that came with the player - the quality of the downloads wasn't always there. We've had great luck with winamp, though. We are able to click and drag to load songs in seconds. We wanted the ability to load music from several sources and not be stuck with one software (itunes - used by the Ipod). We are totally happy with this player.

Digital Frame.......2007-12-28
This digital photo frame is AWESOME!!!!! It has a clear and crisp screen. Does horizontal and vertical photos. Lot's of options and it even plays MP3's well. It also had an extra frame you could snap on. I was very impressed with how the pictures looked on the screen. Good deal and for my first digital photo frame I really like it a lot. Good value, great options, pictures look good on screen, and it wasn't that expensive. I would recommend this brand for starters and the company.
below average.......2007-12-27
I purchased this during Black Friday sales, and upon using the product (it was a gift for mom), I'd hesitate before purchasing again. I certainly wouldn't pay more than $60.
1. Photo contrast and ratio is both poor, as noted in previous reviews
2. Music and photos, as others also noted, cannot be played simultaneously; the product description is ambiguous on this point
3. Interface, though not overly difficult, is not intuitive.
All said, I got what I paid for, I suppose... it's certainly not for anyone looking for quality.
Overall a good deal.......2007-12-26
Summary: Buy it, but expect little nuances.
SO it appears most of us purchaed these for mom! Well, I guess we'll all see if mom is capable of handling this product once she gets it home.
I'm preloading the card I bought with a hundred or so pics, and will go through the painful but necessary process of resizing each pic in software before I send her home with it.
She doesn't know if her Mac has a card reader, so I'm giving her one. It would be much easier if the unit plugged into the mac or PC via USB, which is at least a method she understands. So I worried that she'll never be able to put more pictures on the unit unless I do it for her when I visit.
In any case, I think mom will enjoy this product very much.
I bought one for myself also. I have been unable to find any video files, including those little vids that come with Vista as examples, that will work with the unit. There is no codec information in the instruction booklet (calling it that is a little extreme... it is poorly written and the English translation was done poorly enough to qualify for engrish.com). Animated GIF's do not work. In fact, I have several JPG's that don't display as well, no idea why.
New purchasers and gift givers should combine this product with a memory card and reader (combined, about $30-40 at most) because the unit is useless without it.
needs to be 'plug n play'.......2007-12-24
I purchased this for my mom, who is not very tech savvy. I tested it out before I gave it to her and when I plugged in the SD card, it didn't automatically start playing the pictures. I had to go through a couple screens and select the folder (even though there wasn't a folder on the SD card) that the pictures were in before it would start playing them. Seems to me that it would be smart of them to make the software recognize .jpg files so it would play automatically. I don't know too many grandmas and grandpas who would be comfortable going through what I had to go through to get this thing to work.
Don't buy for someone who lacks tech savvy.......2007-12-24
The instructions are unclear and the user interface very clunky. Do not buy for an older person (or a younger person, for that matter) who is unfamiliar with how to operate nonintuitive devices from manuals translated from another language. It might be OK if you set it up for the person and give it to him or her. I am not familiar with digital photo frames in general, but the screen does seem awfully dark. I presume I could make all the photos lighter, but it gets back to the question, how much trouble do you want to put someone to?

Great Little Drive.......2007-12-27
This is a nice 4 GB drive, especially for the price. It comes clean, no preloaded crapware. It seems very sturdy and the purple and white color scheme is quite appealing. I dinged by one star because the cap is not attached to the drive. It will attach to the back when you have it plugged in (but not well if you attach the included string to the lanyard), but this is still a recipe for losing the cap eventually. That might just be me, though--if that doesn't bother you, this is the drive to buy.
Won't work with Windows 98.......2007-12-27
I bought this item because the reviews indicated it would work with pretty much any computer program. I tried to install it, and it is not on my computer anywhere. When I went to the Kingston web site to see if I could get some help, it states right on their site that it is not supported for Windows 98....Windows 2000 or newer are the only programs it will work with. It may be a great device, but I can't access it on my computer to find out.
Extremely Pleased.......2007-12-27
I use a lot of large files for work and this little drive does it without any problems. It's fast, dependable - more so than my Sandisk - and is probably the best pen drive I've ever used. Works fine on XP and Vista.
not sure about it.......2007-12-25
the cap does not lock properly it might get lost very easy....however it works as expected
Disappointing ergonomic design kills it.......2007-12-24
The Kingston DataTraveler family of drives should be a great product. The pricing is excellent compared to the storage capacity, and they work very well in regards to compatibility with PCs and USB ports.
Where the Kingston drives fail miserably is in their user ergonomics. First up is the cap. The cap is on tight - real tight - and that is good, since it helps prevent it from getting lost. However, the shape of the cap - tapering in the same direction you'll need to pull it - combined with the tightness, and therefore the effort needed to remove it, makes it very difficult to grip long enough to get it off. Kingston could have overcome this easily by including some grooves, ribs, or some flares or depressions to enhance your grip, but inexplicably they didn't.
The fatal flaw for me is the keychain loop on the rear of the drive. For me, the USB drive is all about mobility. I like to be able to carry 4GB of data around with me; it's fantastically handy to port that much storage. But, and this is a big "but", you MUST be able to make sure the data stays with you. Who wants to lose their data? No one does that I know of. And this is where the drive lets you down. The loop for hanging it on a keychain is far too weak to hold up to even light duty use. Mine broke within 6 days of use, and it was shocking how little effort it took for the loop to break. A very gentle tug of my keys from a backpack pocket, an act that my Lexar Media 1 GB JumpDrive Sport USB Flash ( JDSP1GB-231 ) (Retail Package)has endured for nearly 2 years without complaint, and yet the Kingston snapped its loop completely off. To further add insult, it now has 2 very sharp barbs where the loops were, requiring me to perform some surgery on the drive just to make sure it doesn't pose a danger to fingers.
I'm headed back to the Lexar JumpDrive Sport family, which I appreciate even more than I did now that I've seen the failings of the competition.

So Far So Good! Thanks alot AMAZON! Western Digital 160GB 2.5-inch Passport USB Portable Hard Drive
Don't buy this product!.......2007-12-19
I purchased this from Sam's Club a little over a month ago. It worked fine and I was loving the convenience and portability of the drive. Now it doesn't work. During the times I had it I stored it in a small padded case and never dropped it once. It was formatted for a Mac and I used MacDrive to access it on my PC. Like I said before it worked great for about 6 weeks and now I cannot access it. When it is connected to my Mac it doesn't mount at all. When I connect it to my PC I get a USB Device malfunction error message. The drive is operating and there are no blinking lights to tell me there's a problem. I contacted support at Western Digital and they are sending me a USB power booster cable to see if that fixes the problem. I suspect that there may be more to this but I will follow-up when I try the cable. Normally I don't buy Western Digital stuff because of this exact reason. I guess I should have followed my gut and passed this by. Now if this cable doesn't work I'll have lost all of my data. My warning is never buy Western Digital or you may experience what I have! Go to Western Digital's website and check out their forum if you don't believe me.
Value for Money.......2007-12-13
I find the product great - it's light & works fast. Easy to carry since it's portable, but i especially liked the fact that it's quite light. And yeah...looks neat too (in black color.)

Not What You'd Expect.......2007-12-27
I've had these for just over two months now and I have to say they are worth a bit more than what I paid.
First off I must admit I'm no audiophile, but I do listen to a lot of different types of music: electronic, classical, pop, rock, reggae, rap... Through it all, these headphones have performed superbly. They can get fairly loud (I usually keep it lowish cause I don't want to lose my hearing), and have decent, though not spectacular, bass response. Mids and highs are okay as well.
So far they are more durable that a pair of $30 sennheiser I bought earlier (cable sleeves practically fell of that model).
The only mark against these phones is the short cable...its only about three feet. That's great for a player strapped to your arm, or on the belt, but frustrating otherwise.
Overall a fine pair of phones for an amazing price.
Pretty darn good for $5 headphones.......2007-12-26
This product is a steal. I'm no audiophile, but it sounds quite decent to me. I've been using it almost everyday for about a month now and it still hasn't died on me. I was worried that it wouldn't have the noice-reducing capabilities of my old j-buds, but they do, so i'm a very happy customer. Why not 5 stars? They don't come in black and it makes me worry that they'll randomly die on me any day now.
Worth the Price.......2007-12-24
While not the best in-ear headphones, the price of these certainly makes them better than almost anything else on the market. Not as comfortable as the apple version, but at 1/4 the price the difference is negligable. They do turn up the bass when used with an ipod, but using the "bass reducer" equalizer setting seemed to fix any problems. All in all, a good buy.
Very good for the price.......2007-12-21
I've used lots of earphones and these are superb. Great sound quality and very comfortable, I sometimes forget I even have earphones on. Only problem is that it takes little work to get the earphone to stay in my ear because I have big ears, but once it's in it's smooth sailing. Watch out for the silicone tips though, I accidentally stepped on the earphone and it fell off, it was pretty easy to put it back in though but nonetheless be careful.
stereo headphones.......2007-12-21
Nothing special about these headphones. When properly placed in the ears they do cut out external sound to a degree. Decent sound for the price.

Great HD.......2007-12-27
Very portable, very reliable, lightning quick, and lots of storage right in your pocket. Price is great, so light weight and non space consuming. No power source required so less clutter. Very fast (with my OS X 10.5 Leopard anyway) Backed up all my data and use it for my time machine back ups. Flawless.
Compact, neat hard disk.......2007-12-26
It's compact, it's cute, looks very nice. But actual HD size only about 112, which is a let down. When they advertise 120, they should provide 120 GB. Sometime you plan for 120 GB and if it is less, it can be a bad let down. Delivery was efficient, and both pc and laptop detected the hard drive without any problems. I have had it for only a week, haven't used it extensively, no complaints so far. Hope they send me the link again after about 2-3 months so I can give some real feedback about it then!
Get what you pay for.......2007-12-25
Great size and weight, it's almost perfect to move a lot of personal or work info depending on your field of work of course, many may need more space, but this is good enough for the standard user. A carry on bag or sleeve may be necessary as an additional must have for this small gadget.
Compact and Good.......2007-12-25
It is very compact. And works well on my macbook with Leopard. I highly recommend it.
Not as reliable as I'd like.......2007-12-23
My girlfriend got this drive a few months ago. She plugged it into her MacBook, copi
