Nuvi 24x5 and 25x5 (GCD File) Software Version 7.00 Released today. Here is the changelog:
Changes made from version 6.60 to 7.00:
Fixed several route-calculation errors.
Fixed several navigation-related errors.
Fixed several search-related issues.
Fixed several map display errors.
Fixed several ASR errors.
Fixed several SmartPhone Link errors.
Fixed several locale-specific keyboard and display-related errors.
Fixed an error that caused the device to shutdown in certain locations when routing with the Argentina MPC map.
Fixed a route recalculation error that caused the device to stop responding.
Fixed several traffic related errors.
Yes, I know it looks amazing like the changelog for the 34xx and 35xx update that was released and then pulled by Garmin. So far this one looks like it remains available, see http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=5337.
WooHoo - Categories are fixed in 7.00!
Just updated my 2595 to V7.00 and am very happy to report that categories and subcategories are now working!

Wake from sleep problems?
Since upgrading from 6.60 to 7.00, I've had 4 freezes. The Shutdown Causes report lists them as 3 Abnormal Powerdowns and 1 Low Battery(although it was fully charged). The freezes occurred after the unit went into sleep mode and would not wake up without a reset.
Note: Unit now seems to be sleeping/waking without freezing. Problems may be related to changes I was making to re-establish the connection with the Android Smartphone Link app.

Smartphone Link Fixes - Works A lot better
Finished some preliminary Smartphone Link testing. Garmin seem to have fixed most of the past problems I experienced:
Note: There is an updated Garmin Smartphone Link app (1.3.1, July 18) in the Google Play Store. My testing was done with the 1.2 version of the app and a Samsung Nexus S phone running ICS.

Thanks for the update ”t923347”!!! I plan to update my Nuvi 2595 this coming Saturday. I will need it on a family vacation to the Badlands next week.
Take care.

Updated To 7.10 on 2595. So far, so good... Now let's see if those Low Battery aborts from 7.00 go away
EDIT: My wake from sleep problems seemed to be fixed by the 1.3.1 update to the Garmin Smartphone Link app.
