Speaking of Garmin, my ZUMO 660 battery is dying (won't hold a charge) and I can't find a replacement locally. I'm being told by some "good luck, it's a Garmin only item and it's probably not supported anymore." Curious...….Has anyone had to replace their battery for this item?

There is a fix for that. It is not the battery, it is the contacts . Here is a link that explains how to fix it. http://www.totally4bikers.com/blog/...90-run-on-its-battery-for-only-a-few-minutes/

You are confusing a Zumo 590 with a Zumo 660. Different battery with method of connection.

Thanks for the heads up.
I used to dread these map updates. I had Frontier Communication as my internet provider.
It could take as much as 4 hours to update the maps.
I have two GPS. One for my Van and another for my Spyder.
That's 8 hours to update maps. I'd start running the update before I went to sleep and let it run all night
I changed to Xfinity about two weeks ago.
I'm doing the update now. About 30 minutes for each GPS.
WOW, what a difference.
