Actually, my Dad's Garminfone worked fine with Android 1.6, but when I installed Android 2.1, it positively FLEW! The Breeze interface is esay to use, and more intuitive than the Classic interface. Screen orientation is faster too, as well as app execution - I sometimes forget that the Garminfone's ARM CPU is only rated at 600 MHz, with this update! Even power comsumption seems to have improved - I get about 12-13 hours of moderate usage on a full charge. YES - it is DEFINITELY worth it to upgrade to Android 2.1 from 1.6.
