Version 4.90 available via Web Updater. Looks like it updates the traffic draw on the screen. Probably for the 660 as well.

660 As Well

Yes, it is for the 660 as well.

Here is the release history information:

Changes from version 4.80 to version 4.90:
Fixed an issue where traffic would not draw correctly on the map.

I went ahead and updated even though I don't have a traffic subscription. The next map update will require it be installed (unless you use the work-around).

680 update

Thanks for the update. I was holding out for the fix before updating again. Hopefully the new map won't be far off too.

thanks for the warning--

I'll make sure I have good backups for my two units.

Update--

Did my 680 last night and still managed to get to work this morning! Still looking for the magic button to make the traffic go away... No problems with the update.
