I was reading the Garmin web site today. I noted this information. Is it
true they only offer these features in the 2620 and 2660, not the 2610 and
2650. I do not care about the first option, but the last 3 sound like
great features.

The StreetPilot 2620 offers a number of new and exclusive software upgrades,
including:

  a.. Multiple Destinations
  Do you want to find the most efficient route for deliveries or sales
calls? Users can enter a series of destinations, and the StreetPilot 2620
will automatically sort them to provide an efficient route.
  b.. Road Segment and Area Avoidance
  Would you like to avoid traffic tie-ups or roadwork? Users can specify
areas and road segments to avoid when calculating routes.
  c.. Find Nearest on Route
  Are you running on empty? This time-saving feature allows users to limit
searches for gas stations, restaurants, etc., to upcoming points near a
route.
  d.. Adjustable Road Class Preference
  How about taking the road less traveled? Users can adjust preferences for
major, medium, and minor road categories.
