Change Garmin Nuvi 660 default screen

Hi all:

Does anyone know how to change/hack the default screen for the Garmin Nuvi 660? Right now, after the Warning Screen, it goes to the Menu Screen; I have to select "View Map" to continue. How can I get it to go directly to the Map upon startup?

Thanks

"View Map" as the default

IIRC, the warning screen is displayed for legal reason. If you wait it out, eventually the 660 will go to "View Map" as the default.

Nobody has figured out a way to do that. Discussed before.

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.
