Hi does it store/write all the user set preferences on the little card included or does it have some other system e.g. internal battery for storing them..

or do you have to keep 2 (charged) AA batteries in it all the time to keep the settings?

Thanks for your help

I havent got any batteries in it at the moment but it seems to save all my searches e.g. the last 20 places i have travelled to and 'my home'

Ive only got it yesterday so i cant remember if it keeps every little user preset u change it to???

Interesting. I noticed that when I removed the memory card and turned on to see what would happen, after I'd re-inserted it as requested the current location had reset to somewhere near Buckingham Palace (like the middle of Green Park I think). It wasn't until I allowed it to reacquire the satellites that it would start up at my current location.

Maybe mine was previously owned by the Queen. Wink

More likely owned by her driver, she doesn't drive herself.
