Mine just updated to 6.60. Based on the release notes none of the issues I’ve had were addressed. I don’t see any changes in any of the menus yet.

"Improved software stability" might cover it !!

Just updating and checking now. I have added my screen shot to the software update log. Here
Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !

Leaving for a 4-day ride Monday, so on the edge of my seat following this. Time to invoke Rule #1 -- never do an update just before a trip? Or will there be an important improvement that I just =have= to have?

That's the question!
I would go for Rule #1 and not update now.

Updating before a trip guarantees "Adventurous" routing! :lol:

Do it anyway!

Do not update now! Maybe risk is not that big but it is still not worth checking on your trip.

I'm in the "Do not update" camp. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't.
