I haven't registered my i3 yet as I didn't get a yellow slip and can't fill the number in on the website. Does anyone know how I can get one? |

I found different firmware versions make a big difference to the time it takes to lock onto satellites. With 3.1 it took a good few minutes but now I'm back on 2.7 it locks on within 30-40 secs or so. |

My v8 with 2.7 firmware doesn't show this message yet. I wonder if it's down to the firmware you use?

I would also recommend rolling back to 2.7, most people will tell you this is the best version, I tried 3.1 and found it useless. Also moving the i3 to the corner of the screen instead of the middle s ... |
