Nuvi 360 vs Nuvi 660 screen

 

I bought a Nuvi 660 and absolutely love it. The screen is really bright and easy to see in the day. I later bought a Nuvi 360 for my other car and have been disappointed with the screen. Don't get me wrong, the screen is still day viewable and better than most other GPS units, but is no where close to brightness of the Nuvi 660. Is it just mine, or are they all that way? Did they make any improvements to the newer Nuvi 370?

660 display type
WQVGA color TFT with white backlight

360 display type
QVGA color antiglare TFT with white backlight

couldn't tell ya what the WQVGA and QVGA difference is, but obviously you've been able to see the difference.

I recall reading somewhere that indeed the screen is brighter on the 660 than some of the other lower nuvi models, like the 350 and the 360. Not sure about the 370 though.
