Caution - Noobie Alert!!!!!!
I've recently bought a nuvie 650(upgraded from 350) & love the widescreen!
However, while reading the forums, I've noticed that others have upgraded their 350/6xx's with the latest firmware(like 4.10). My 650 has North american NT 2008 maps(the latest one), but the firmware is only 3.90!!!
Question: does anyone have a 650 & what is the latest firmware for it? Note: I checked the Garmin site & there seem to be no updates for the 650. Can I use the 350's firmware update on my 650?(as they are basically both the same GPS except for the screen size)?
Thanks in advance for any replies!

The 650 hasn't been out as long as those other models.
The numbers of the versions can't be compared between models. There's no relationship. Presumably, some of the issues that were addressed by firmware updates of those models were addressed in the initial firmware for the 650 thus negating the need for an update.
Absolutely do NOT use any firmware except that which is specifically designed for your model number. Using the wrong firmware could render your unit inoperable.

Thanks Motorcycle Mama.....I'll hold tight!
Yeah, that would be nice to
Yeah, that would be nice to have all the same firmware versions for all units, but very impractical as a programmer sees it.
Question: I don't see the big advantage of a wider screen, since most of the time I am worried what's in front of me and not beside me. What do others see to having a wider screen?
