Device Software 2.9

[chrisjk]

Improved satellite re-acquisition speed in mountainous areas with poor reception. This results in improved positional accuracy, which corrects an issue where the vehicle icon could be displayed off of the road.

Happy to see this - downloading now. As I am not currently in the hills won't have an opportunity to test it.

Just plugged mine in to update it before a forthcoming trip & it says "Your Device Software is up to date. Version 2.70".

Tut.

You could try reinstalling GE.

All sorted now, thanx.

I updated my Nav V to the latest 2.90 software, which brings with it the improved positional and satelite aquisition fixes.

Last weekend I rode the device around the hilly, cloudy, forested Morvan region, duplicating the routes where I lost satellite signals and / or suffered from the device freezing up last time.

I am happy to report all was well. It did lose its satellite fix just once, on a complicated left-right-left junction on a very small road in a deep valley. Re-acquisition again was quite quick. More than acceptable.

10/10 (without going to the Alps)

Excellent news!
