[QUOTE="LKLD, post: 1336388, member: 30221"] Satellites vs. cell phone towers, is all that needs to be said. However, add to that, by making your own routes and adding into the Zumo, makes it's the easiest, but more costly, solution. I use the phone too, mainly for music (downloaded, so I don't need signal), and to check weather (My Radar app). I'll occasionally use Google Maps on the phone, for directions, because I like the voice prompt better than Garmin's. If that Garmin bitc* says "recalculating" in that irritatingly robotic, condescending voice, one more time, I swear, I'll reach down her throat and pull her overly synthesized voice box out!! The 660 I bought wasn't cheap (3 1/2 yrs ago), but it's been worth it in the long run. [/QUOTE]
