The 650 also lacks an AC Adapter for charging the unit when it is out of the vehicle. Because I intended to also use mine for sight-seeing this was important, I wanted to be able to charge it each night in the motel room.
For the price difference between the two, the 660 is actually a better deal when you consider the lack of an AC Adapter.

, no doubt about it. However, if you don't need those items, except for them, the 650 is identical, but, as Craig mentioned, lacks an AC adapter accessory. I just ordered a Garmin 650 Nuvi, from www.Shipdog.com for $433.00, shipped to my door. I then went on EBAY and picked up an 110 VAC to 12 VDC converter plug for $5.50 ($0.51 + $4.99 shipping 
). There's a ton of them on there for about that price. Best Buy gets almost $20 for an identical one. Anyway...so, I can just plug this small AC converter into the wall and plug my 12VDC cord and plug, from the car, into it. More than one way to skin a cat! I'm pleased.
