I am trying to use Inset but have a problem in 6.0.1

see this code

Manipulate[
 Graphics[
  {Circle[],
   Inset[Style[StringJoin["value:", ToString[N[c]]], Blue, 20]]
   }
  ]
 , {{c, (2 \[Pi])/3, "Value c"}, -1, 2 Pi, 0.001}]

use the slide to go to value 1.609
and then it jumps into value 1.61
the problem I have is that the text jumps horizontaly

any way to make the text fix so it will not jump?
this happens because the numbers 1.609 and 1.61 are different in leght
any solution?
