No reports ? - is this the first perfect version?

By no means perfect, based on the GPSrChive > GPSMAP 66 > Common Issues page.

It’s strange it’s so long since this version came out, but it’s still only 9.60 on Garmin’s firmware (Updates & Downloads) page.

This seems also to affect other devices, like GPSMap 276Cx or Montana 7x0. It's also outdated there.
