When a new post is shown would it be possible for the replies to be posted by newest one first and oldest last. This would make it easier when reading so you wouldn't have to go through 2, 3, or 4, pages befoore betting to the lasted reply. I can see some reason for the way it is now as you can read each post as it was posted but after a few days it is kind of redundant to read the same replies in order to get to the new ones.

John, make sure you set your preferences at the top of the Unread Posts page -- that way you won't even see the forums in which you have no interest, and lists your favorite forums first.
Nuvi 660 -- and not upgrading it or maps until Garmin fixes long-standing bugs/problems, and get maps to where they are much more current, AND corrected on a more timely basis when advised of mistakes.
