Upgraded from a 660 and what a world of difference. With the cash back it cost £110 and is worth every penny I'd say.

It warns me of speed cameras (as they all do).
It lets me know there's roadworks ahead and changes the road colour on the screen as you enter them.
It locks on to satellites within a few seconds of starting.
The traffic function seems to work a lot better.
The photo lane assist is great.
There is much more useful information displayed including the current speed limit.
And most of all, the voice command feature is brilliant, no more pulling over to enter an address, just tell it whilst still on the move and hey presto it's navigating!!

Thanks Garmin Cool

I've been looking at this one as well as I'm still trying to find out which units definitely support transferring routes from Basecamp.
Garmin are hopeless at giving an answer on this, different answer from different people.
Do you happen to know if it definitely works on this one, checking on the net there seem to be varying opinions.
Didn't realise the cashback offer was still on. Where did you get it if you don't mind my asking.

Got it from Amazon.
Must admit I haven't tried transfering routes on this but the bumf suggests it does.
But my Zumo 550 works with basecamp.

Glad to hear it, think that's what I said to someone on another forum, maybe it was you Wink
