Garmin Nuvi 660 - favourites listing?

[AMG Merc]

OK, so I love my 660 but it drives me mad when I add locations to favourites and it won't list them in alphabetical order - instead, the order I entered them in which makes searching a pain - am I missing something?

The Nuvi will list locations by distance from your current position.

If you want some order in your saved favourites, try creating them as POIs and saving them in folders arranged by type. i.e. friends addresses, cinemas, eating places. When you then use POILoader to put them on your Nuvi, they will at least be lumped together by category.

Thanks DB - I wonder if the newer models have this sorted any better?

Nope, I have a 760 which is one of the newer models and it's the same. It's just the way Garmin chooses to present locations when you are looking for them.
